Our public health work helps communities learn about the risk factors of dementia and how they can take action. Tools like our free Brain Health Habit Builder help you get started in taking control of your brain health by assessing your current habits and creating a personalized, research-backed plan.

On #WorldParkinsonsDay, we’re recognizing the full impact of Parkinson’s disease. While it is often associated with movement, Parkinson's can also affect memory and thinking as the disease progresses. This is known as Parkinson’s disease dementia. 💜 Learn more: bit.ly/2FLfHHv.

The loyalty of a pet knows no bounds. 🐾💜 After an 82‑year‑old woman living with dementia went missing in the woods, her dog stayed by her side through the night until help arrived. On #NationalPetDay, we honor the incredible role pets can play in the lives of those living with dementia and their families — offering comfort, connection and unconditional love.

Across the country, members of the @SigmaKappaNHQ #Walk2EndAlz 2025 Diamond National Team worked together to reach their highest fundraising total ever, over $1.7M. Thank you, Sigma Kappa, for your years of dedication and support in the fight to #ENDALZ.

💜 On National Siblings Day, we honor Melin and Vicky and all siblings who turn love into action, grief into advocacy and remembrance into hope. Join them and participate in a Ride to End ALZ near you: alz.org/ride.

Knowing that they’re riding for the same people is meaningful. “We push each other up the hills, laugh when it gets tough, and have those quiet, emotional moments that remind us exactly why we’re there. We’re not just riding for who we’ve lost. We’re riding for the next generation so they never have to experience this kind of heartbreak.”

Siblings push us forward and show up without hesitation. For Melin Ross, that person is her older sister Vicky Ross Schaar, who rides beside her through hard miles and the meaningful moments. 💜🚲🧵

Congress dramatically improved lives when they enabled Medicare to cover routine mammograms. This is a “mammogram moment” for Alzheimer’s. Demand that Congress apply this same evidence-based approach for Alzheimer’s blood tests: bit.ly/442ieIq. #ASAPAct
