This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. The Alzheimer’s Association is on a mission to end Alzheimer’s and all forms of dementia. They’re leading global research, pushing for early detection and raising awareness about risk reduction — all while providing quality care and support. Executive Director, Stacie Kulp, joins us with more.
Stacie Kulp:
At the Alzheimer’s Association, we know how overwhelming this disease can be — not just for those diagnosed, but for the families and friends who support them.
Alzheimer’s is the 7th-leading cause of death in America and the only major disease without a cure or prevention. In Utah, more than 38,000 people live with Alzheimer’s, and 112,000 loved ones provide unpaid care.
The Alzheimer’s Association is here to help. We offer free resources, education and support to families navigating the challenges of Alzheimer’s and related dementias. Our 24/7 Helpline, staffed with trained professionals, can answer questions, direct you to local resources and offer guidance on coping with this disease.
As the world’s leading nonprofit funder of Alzheimer’s research, we are tirelessly working toward better treatments and, ultimately, a cure. You don’t have to face this alone.
