    Scheduled Maintenance

    Several of our websites, including Walk to End Alzheimer’s®, are currently unavailable due to scheduled maintenance. In the meantime, please contact us and we'll follow up with you as soon as possible.

    You can still find general information about Alzheimer's and all other dementia, including caregiving resources and local support, across alz.org or by calling our free 24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900).

    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.

    But we can't end Alzheimer's without your help.

    Urge Congress to Allow Medicare Coverage for Alzheimer's Blood Tests

    Researchers have developed blood tests that can detect Alzheimer’s before symptoms appear — but Medicare can't cover these tests until Congress allows it. Tell Congress to support the bipartisan ASAP Act, which clears this roadblock and accelerates access to dementia screening.
