In honor of caregivers

[link removed]

Dear John,

This November, National Family
Caregivers Month, we come together to honor and celebrate the 16
million caregivers in the United States who selflessly care for those
living with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.

Alzheimer's and dementia caregivers
provide an estimated 18.6 billion hours of care and support a year,
valued at $244 billion. In my eyes, the work caregivers do is
priceless. Time and time again, I meet caregivers who so selflessly
give of themselves and their time to support and care for friends and
family living with Alzheimer's.

If you know a caregiver, please pass
on my personal appreciation. We know caring for someone living with
Alzheimer's can be overwhelming, and we're here to help:

* During the pandemic, we've moved our education programs and
support groups online - so caregivers have the ability to
connect to a network of support any time they need it.

* Both the caregiver and the person living with Alzheimer's face
changes to emotional and physical health as the disease
progresses. Some people find a firm understanding of the stages
helpful, so we provide disease education and resources at
alz.org.

* Being a caregiver doesn't come with an instruction manual, but
there are resources to help. We provide free trainings and
workshops that help by teaching practical skills.

Caregivers are at the core of our
community. For every single one, we press forward guided by our
mission to lead 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.

Thank you for honoring caregivers
during National Family Caregivers Month,

Donna McCullough
Chief Field and Development Officer
