November is National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month and National Caregiver Month

During the month of November, we can all help raise awareness for Alzheimer’s and honor the 15 million Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers currently in the United States.

EVERY 67 SECONDS someone in the United States develops the disease and currently an estimated 5.3 million Americans of all ages have Alzheimer’s disease. This number is expected to reach 7.1 Million in the next 10 years so awareness and research is critical.

The selfless work of caregivers dedicate so many hours of their time to loved ones each day, in honor of National Caregiver Month, we want to send these exceptional people a big “thank you” for everything they do.

Take a moment to honor the caregiver in your life this month. “Honor a Caregiver” here. Or if you are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s, get resources!
