On January 13 in the Minnesota State Capitol Rotunda, the Alzheimer's Disease Working Group report will be delivered to the legislature. This report details the impact of Alzheimer's in Minnesota and includes recommendations to the legislature for needed policy and program changes that would prepare the state for the impending Alzheimer's crisis. At that same event, a new coalition will be launched to Prepare Minnesota for Alzheimer's by 2020.

Minnesota can be a pioneer in this charge and set an example for the nation by having people like you -- caregivers, people with Alzheimer's, researchers, healthcare providers, faith communities, legislators and all citizens -- join efforts to help our state get prepared.

We need you to join us! Help us rally during our press event and meet with your legislator to tell them to recognize the urgent need to address Alzheimer's.

We cannot afford to sit on the sidelines. We must take action now!
