Last Friday, our incredible volunteer advocates and some of our AlzOC staff had the privilege of visiting elected officials right here in Orange County for the 2026 Alzheimer’s Orange County Advocacy Day!

We met with the offices of Assemblymember Cottie Petrie-Norris, Assemblymember Laurie Davies, CA Senator Tony Strickland, CA Senator Steven Choi, CA Senator Catherine Blakespear, US Representative Mike Levin, US Representative Lou Correa, Assemblyman Phillip Chen, and Assemblyman Tri Ta.

Giving a voice to our dementia community and helping our elected officials understand the needs of older adults and their families living with dementia remains a top priority. Thank you to our local elected representatives for meeting with us and to all those who joined us in making this day possible.
