Connecticut Chapter

In Connecticut, more than 76,000 people are living with Alzheimer’s, and nearly double that amount of people are providing their unpaid care. From Fairfield to Hartford to New London and every town in between, your local Connecticut Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association is here to help.

Whether it’s offering support to anyone facing Alzheimer’s, advocating for the needs and rights of those facing dementia, or advancing critical research, we work toward methods of treatment, prevention, and ultimately, a cure.
