2020 Goals for Alzheimer’s in Salt Lake City

January 21, 2020

Will the next century hold the cure for Alzheimer’s?


Here are some important areas for our community to focus on in 2020 towards the goal to end Alzheimer's this century:

1. Education is the number one thing we can do towards the healthcare goal of curing Alzheimer's.

2. Support research and clinical trials so we can better diagnose the disease and develop medications to treat symptoms.

3. Fundraising to support the Alzheimer's Association with fundraising events like the Walk to End Alzheimers and the Longest Day.

4. Help provide long-term care and family support for those living with the disease.
