Volunteer Opportunities

We are seeking volunteers to serve as the following:

  • Walk/Special Events
    Assist with the planning and execution of fundraisers such as the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, The Longest Day and the A Celebration of Hope gala. Committee member tasks include recruiting team members, raising revenue, increasing awareness and implementing event activities. Other volunteers are also needed for tasks on the day of the events.
  • Advocate
    Help improve the quality of care and quality of life for people with Alzheimer’s disease and their families by carrying our message to elected officials at the federal, state and local levels. Communicate with elected officials via letters, phone calls and other calls-to-action, participate in area events and share your story. 
  • Faith Outreach Representative
    Be a liaison between the Alzheimer's Association and local faith groups or congregations. Share information about Alzheimer’s disease, our free resources, and ways to join our cause at local community and education events. 
  • Community Educator
    Community Educators are volunteer public speakers who help the Alzheimer's Association raise awareness, provide education and expand the reach of educational offerings in the community. These volunteers deliver presentations using prepared training materials on topics related to Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.
  • Community Representative
    Community Representatives serve as an extension of local Alzheimer's Association offices at community events (i.e., health fairs, festivals, congregations, community centers or corporations) to distribute information and connect constituents with Alzheimer's Association services.
  • Support Group Facilitator
    Support Group Facilitators create a safe, open environment where people share their feelings, thoughts and experiences in a combined effort to better cope with and manage the shared problems of dementia.
