    Missouri Alzheimer's Awareness Day

    Missouri Alzheimer's Awareness Day

    On March 11, help us raise Alzheimer's awareness all across Missouri.

    More than 122,000 Missourians have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's or dementia, with over 220,000 serving as their caregivers. Those numbers are only expected to increase.

    To help raise awareness around this devastating disease, the Missouri legislature has named the second Tuesday in March Alzheimer's Awareness Day. The Missouri Senate will recognize the day with a special proclamation.

    The Alzheimer's Association Greater Missouri Chapter is also planning a day of activities to spread the message about the impact of dementia in Missouri. View our upcoming programs list below and find one near you. (New programs continue to be added so check back for updates)
