About Our Association

Education

One of the most effective ways to ensure optimal care for those with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease is through caregiver education.

Awareness

Bringing awareness to the disease and encouraging families to share their challenges and successes is essential.

Respite Care Grants

Respite care provides caregivers a temporary rest from caring for a loved one. It also allows caregivers time to take care of errands while having comfort and peace of mind, knowing their loved one is safe.

Resources

Every person’s needs are unique when it comes to dementia and Alzheimer’s care. We can help provide resources and referrals to many different services.

To Support Care Givers in St. Clair County

Hundreds in our community members have come together over the years to participate in our annual Alzheimer’s 5K Run/Walk. This year’s event was a great success in raising awareness and adding to our total of over $100,000 raised to support respite care grants and other educational resources.

As a caregiver, you likely have many responsibilities. It is important to take care of your own well-being and to connect with others that understand.
