Join the Movement During Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month
June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month and the Alzheimer’s Association® (alz.org/abam) needs you to get involved and raise awareness about Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Everyone who has a brain is at risk to develop Alzheimer’s, a disease that is often misunderstood.
Did you know:
- Alzheimer’s is fatal. It kills more than breast and prostate cancer combined.
- Alzheimer’s is not normal aging. It’s a progressive brain disease without any cure.
- Alzheimer’s is more than memory loss. It appears through a variety of signs and symptoms.
- During the month of June, the Alzheimer’s Association asks you to learn more about Alzheimer’s, share your story and take action. Visit alz.org/abam to:
- Learn and share the facts about Alzheimer’s.
- Get inspired by powerful stories of people sharing their experiences with the disease.
- Go purple — the color of Alzheimer’s awareness — on Facebook, Twitter and more!
- Honor those facing the disease by participating in the Alzheimer’s Association The Longest Day on June 21. Sign up or donate at alz.org/thelongestday.
