    National Capital Area Chapter

    From La Plata to Reston to Winchester, and every place in between, many people are living with Alzheimer’s and even more caregivers dedicate hours of unpaid care. Your local National Capital Area 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.

    The National Capital Area Chapter serves the Washington D.C., Northern Virginia and Suburban and Southern Maryland areas. You can also explore nearby Chapters in the region including Greater Maryland, Greater Richmond, Central and Western Virginia, and Southeastern Virginia.
