CAN THE ALZHEIMER’S ASSOCIATION HELP ME? If you or a loved one is suffering from Alzheimer’s, the prospect of going to an association for help may seem scary or overwhelming. However, the truth is that joining a local support group is a powerful opportunity for you to comfort others in your community that are going through the same struggles. By becoming involved, you become part of a legacy of compassionate caregivers dedicated to providing support, research, advocacy, and education for this tragic disease. History Not much was known about Alzheimer’s in the 1970s. When Evelyn Stone was diagnosed with the disease in 1970, her husband, Jerome H. Stone, couldn’t find many resources to explain what she was going through. He became a leader in the Alzheimer’s awareness movement and was the first founding president of the Alzheimer’s Association, which reaches millions of people affected by Alzheimer’s and all other dementia. Support Groups Suffering from early stages of Alzheimer’s? Or are you a caretaker or family member to someone with Alzheimer’s? No matter who you are — from spouse caretakers to facility caretakers — there’s likely a
virtual or in-person support group for you. These groups are great for finding a safe space to discuss your recent struggles with people who can empathize with your experiences. 2021 Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Williamsburg, VA On Saturday, Oct. 23, 2021, there will be a local in-person event in Williamsburg — an outdoor Walk to End Alzheimer’s®. It’s the nation’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support, and research. You can choose to make a donation and receive exclusive purple Alzheimer’s Association gear, or you can walk and join the crowd to add to its enormous presence in the city!
