Dementia and Alzheimer’s Resources
Alzheimer’s disease is one of the leading causes of death in the United States that currently has no cure, prevention, or treatment to slow its progression. It profoundly affects individuals, families, and communities.
In New Jersey, Alzheimer’s is the fifth leading cause of death for women, and it is projected to rise sharply in low-income, urban, and Hispanic communities.
