Alzheimer's Los Angeles

Helping Local Families for 35 Years… Facing it Together

In January, our board had to make a decision: either merge our 35-year-old nonprofit under a national umbrella in Chicago or rebrand the organization and focus 100% of our efforts to help local families. They chose 100% LOCAL! And we’ve been told by the people we serve that decision earned us an “A+” since now 100% of every penny remains in the communities we serve.

The cost of this disease is bankrupting local individuals financially, emotionally, and physically, and the money you donate or raise by participating in our events like Walk4ALZ allows us to help at no cost.We are also raising money to support innovative, ground-breaking research here in the Greater LA and Inland Empire area. Our change lets us commit 20% of Walk4ALZ proceeds directly to research.
Additionally, we continue to advocate on behalf of increased funding for research and resources for caregivers locally, statewide, and federally… for 35 years we’ve been on the ground making a difference for people and the cause. Today our commitment to Greater Los Angeles and Inland Empire remains stronger than ever and we hope your commitment to us with our new name and new look remains strong as well.
Let’s face it… a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s is devastating. So until there’s a prevention, treatment, or cure... let’s face it TOGETHER.

TOGETHER WE CAN…

• help more people

• bring hope to caregivers and families

• raise awareness and change perceptions

• create dementia friendly communities

• one day prevent, treat, or cure the disease

• do more… be more… on behalf of those affected

Some of the local support we offer includes Care Counseling and our 24/7 Helpline. Care Counseling provides in-depth, personalized consultations for individuals and families facing decisions and challenges associated with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Our Care Counselors address unique concerns to develop a care plan and work with families in person, by phone, and by email. Helpline specialists provide the most up-to-date information, education, and support. We know that living with Alzheimer’s can be overwhelming at times. Remember we are here for you…all day, every day.
