Alzheimer's Advocates assist our Advocacy Manager with outreach and public policy goals on the federal and state levels. Advocates share their personal stories with their elected officials while urging them to support research funding increases and additional resources for those affected by Alzheimer's disease. Advocates write letters, make office visits with staff and work on other projects to advance public policy. We need your help! Contact us to find out more.
