A month of raising Alzheimer’s awareness in Orange County

During the month of September (World Alzheimer’s Month), Alzheimer’s Orange County will be rallying the OC community to GO BLUE to help us spread the message about the pervasiveness of Alzheimer’s and dementia here in our very own community, as well as raise awareness about the free programs and services we offer to all those who are affected.

Alzheimer’s Orange County provides programs and services, free of charge, to Orange County residents with Alzheimer’s and related dementia disorders, their families, caregivers, and the community. Alzheimer’s Orange County began as an independent 501c3 nonprofit in 1982, became a chapter of a national nonprofit in 1984, and in December 2015, regained its independence once again, with all fundraising going toward care, support and research in Orange County, California. Alzheimer’s is a devastating neurodegenerative illness that weakens the memory and other cognitive and emotional functions.
