Alzheimer's Association Greater Indiana Chapter

Do you have a niche for motivating, coaching and inspiring others? Join us in the fight against Alzheimer's. The Alzheimer's Association of Greater Indiana is looking for volunteers to help us with our newest national signature event, The Longest Day. Be part of The Longest Day Volunteer Committee where you will play a vital role in team recruitment and cultivation, as well as marketing and promoting the event throughout our chapter territory.

The Longest Day is the day with the most light - the summer solstice. On or around June 21, we raise funds for Alzheimer’s care, support and research through activities run by individuals in your community. From running and yoga to baking and playing cards, individuals, companies and families can use their passion to stand up to the darkness of Alzheimer’s.

Mission Statement

To eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.

Description

In 1982, the Alzheimer’s Association and Related Disorders Organization was established in cooperation with Community Hospitals, Indianapolis to support patients and families affected by Alzheimer’s disease. The Chapter affiliated with the National Association in 1988 and became the Alzheimer’s Association - Central Indiana Chapter. By the year 2000, 37 counties in central Indiana were served by the Chapter.

Meanwhile, in 1986, the South Central Indiana Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association was incorporated. Located in Columbus, Indiana, the South Central Chapter originally served five counties. By the year 2000, their service area had grown to 14 counties.

In the year 2000, these two chapters merged to form the Alzheimer’s Association of Central Indiana. In 2003, the Alzheimer’s Association of Central Indiana merged with the Ft. Wayne Alzheimer’s Support Groups to form the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Indiana. With the merger, the Association expanded it’s territory to include Northern Indiana and opened an office in Ft. Wayne, Indiana.

The Association is administered by a voluntary Board of Directors and a staff of 25. Over 550 volunteers are also utilized to provide support and education programs to the Association’s 73 counties.
