To empower and equip persons and communities affected by Alzheimer?s disease and related disorders with expert information and resources, compassionate guidance and effective education that improves lives.

Description:
The Alzheimer's Association Minnesota - North Dakota is excited to offer innovative and research-based educational programs. Courses are available throughout Minnesota and North Dakota for persons with memory loss, and their family and professional care partners.

Individualized assistance, problem solving and identification of resources are available to persons with memory loss and their family and professional care partners.

Alzheimer's Association affiliated support groups provide a special resource for care partners, family members, and loved ones of those with Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia. Support groups are located throughout Minnesota and North Dakota.

Our Information and Referral Telephone Helpline is available to provide information, support, printed materials and referrals to area resources.

History:
This Chapter was one of seven founding chapters of the National Alzheimer's Association, headquartered in Chicago. It was started by family caregivers who came together around a common need of getting support and help for their loved ones with dementia. For 28 years, our donor-supported, not-for-profit Alzheimer?s Association has provided reliable information and care consultation; created supportive services for families; increased funding for dementia research; and influenced public policy changes.
