With the arrival of autumn, the end of 2018 is around the corner. NARFE and its members set a goal to raise $13 million this year to help the Alzheimer's Association advance research and advocate for the rights and needs of people living with this disease. Today, our exciting objective is within reach. With the continued dedication and generosity of NARFE members, we will achieve this year's goal. And together, we will continue to work toward our ultimate goal: To accelerate methods of prevention, treatment and, one day, a cure for Alzheimer's and other dementias. Thank you, NARFE members, for all you have done and all you will continue to do in the fight against this disease.

With early detection, you can explore treatments that may provide some relief of symptoms and help you maintain a level of independence longer, as well as increase your chances of participating in clinical trials that help advance research.
