Our Impact
ANSWERING THE CALL
Alzheimer’s Orange County’s trusted team of Dementia Care Specialists provide free one-on-one guidance to thousands of people every year. They answer questions, provide referrals, give Care Consultations and help each individual get the answers and support they need.
LEADING THE WAY WITH EDUCATION
Despite the growing number of people affected by Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia, many people lack a full understanding of it or feel unprepared to face it.
Our free educational classes help caregivers learn practical care strategies, train professionals on how to serve people with memory loss, and teach others our community about important topics related to dementia, brain health and other vital healthy aging topics.
SUPPORTING UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES
Alzheimer’s Orange County’s work in the Latino community is part of a continuous effort to provide support to Orange County’s diverse community. Increasing our reach in underserved communities where the need is great and the risk is elevated is crucial.
CREATING A SENSE OF COMMUNITY
People that care for others with memory loss can struggle with a variety of emotions and difficulties along their journey. Support groups help bring people with common challenges together to exchange encouragement and find solutions in a comfortable and safe environment for anyone that participates.
FINDING HOPE FROM THE START
Getting help from the moment someone shows signs of memory loss or when they receive a diagnosis is essential. Our early memory loss program helps families prepare, plan and move forward with confidence so they can take control of their next steps.
CULTIVATING CONNECTIONS
Our Connect2Culture program organizes fun, social and meaningful activities in the community for people with memory loss and their care partners. We create opportunities for families to get out and stay active with other people like them.
PROMOTING HEALTHY AGING
Our two licensed adult day centers located in Garden Grove and Laguna Woods (Healthy Aging Center: Acacia and Healthy Aging Center: Laguna Woods) provide direct care that makes it easier for people to age at home and help promote the health and wellness of each participant and their families.
