Alzheimer's disease kills more people than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined. It is the 6th leading cause of death in this country and the only major diseases with no prevention, no treatment, and no cure. We will continue to serve people and advance research until we find a cure!
"Until it (Alzheimer's) comes home, you really don't know where to start," she said. "No one would ever think to come to the Alzheimer's Association before they need it, but it has been a great resource that has enabled me to be prepared for each stage (of the disease)." Caregiver
The Alzheimer's Association leads the way to end Alzheimer's and all other dementia by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support.
The Colorado Chapter of Alzheimer's Association serves all 64 counties in Colorado through our 4 offices in Denver, Colorado Springs, Grand Junction and Loveland. There are over 90,000 Coloradans living with Alzheimer's and 177,000 caregivers. As the 7th leading cause of death in this country, we will strive to provide the best support possible until we find a cure.
