In addition to our live programs, we have a rich website at alz.org.

Spend some time exploring all we have to offer for you at alz.org. One of the online tools that you ll find on our website is Alzheimer s Navigator. We can help you map out a plan to approach Alzheimer s by visiting the Web page at alzheimersnavigator.org. Alzheimer's Navigator to helps guide you to answers by creating a personalized action plan containing information, support and local resources. You can then share your plan with you friends and family, linking them to the materials customized for your situation. By visiting our Community Resource Finder online tool at communityresourcefinder.org, you can search for local community living services, day programs, medical resources and more. Whether you are in the area or across the country, you can find services to help someone living with dementia and make the contacts you all need to ensure safety and comfort. Updated Healthy Living for Your Brain and Body: Tips from the Latest Research 31
32 A rich supplement to our local supportive programs is ALZConnected, our online message boards with over 50,000 members who share their thoughts, questions and ideas with each other 24 hours a day. Whether you are living with dementia or are close to someone who is, you can come on to read or post about your concerns. Let ALZConnected help you develop plans, find support and discover new coping techniques by connecting with others who are living with dementia or are partners in caring. Our 24/7 Helpline offers dementia-trained professionals to talk with any time, day or night, every day of the year. Call us at when you need information about the disease and meeting its challenge, links to resources or a supportive ear during difficult times. We are here to help. The Alzheimer s Association has chapters all through the country, where we offer education programs, support groups, and much more. To find a chapter anywhere in the U.S., go to alz.org/findus, where you can search by state or zip code. Once on the chapter s web page, you can see what is being offered in that area. Finally, the Training and Education Center of alz.org is where you can access programs like this one from the convenience of home. Just go to alz.org/training, and you can find programs and materials that offer the most current information about dementia, treatments and care. Please contact us and let the Alzheimer s Association partner with you to help ensure your wellbeing. Presenter s note: Here is the spot to highlight what you are doing at your chapter, including upcoming programs, events and resources 32 Healthy Living for Your Brain and Body: Tips from the Latest Research Updated 05.16
33 specific to the location of this presentation. Flyers and brochures from your chapter can be placed on the resource table along with the Know the 10 Signs and Principles for a Dignified Diagnosis materials. You can use your voice, your motivation, your interest and your skills to help find new treatments and to enhance services for all people affected by dementia. Clinical trials research studies are being conducted all over the world to find treatments are safe and effective. Clinical trials are the best way for researchers to find new ways to detect, slow, treat and hopefully someday prevent Alzheimer's disease. The Alzheimer s Association s TrialMatch is a free clinical studies matching service that connects individuals with Alzheimer s, caregivers and healthy volunteers to local clinical trials seeking participants. When you join a clinical trial, you have an opportunity to participate in vital research that could change the course of Alzheimer s disease and improve the lives of all those it affects. Visit TrialMatch online at trialmatch.alz.org or call our Helpline at to get started making a difference. The Walk to End Alzheimer s and The Longest Day are opportunities for the local community to join together in the spirit of grassroots advocacy that is central to the mission of the Alzheimer s Association. Forming a team to support a friend or family member is a direct way to show your concern for the person as well as for the cause, and those who live with the impact of these diseases in their lives are tremendously grateful. Updated Healthy Living for Your Brain and Body: Tips from the Latest Research 33
34 We also encourage you to join us in providing education and support programs to families in your area who are living with Alzheimer s and other forms of dementia. Whether you are a person with the disease, a care partner or caregiver, or a professional in the field, you can volunteer to use your knowledge and compassion to have a profound impact on those whose lives are affected by the disease. Presenter s note: This is the time to highlight volunteer activities at your chapter and to circulate recruitment materials. You can also join us to speak up for the needs and rights of people with Alzheimer s and their families, and to help persuade state and federal Congress to increase funding for research and programs. Many caregivers and people with the disease find the experience of advocating to be therapeutic, and it puts a human face on complex policy issues for our legislators. We need you to help us change the course of Alzheimer s disease for everyone affected, and we welcome you to join us in making a difference. 34 Healthy Living for Your Brain and Body: Tips from the Latest Research Updated 05.16
