Alison Farison, volunteer coordinator (alfarison@alz.org) for the Northeastern New York Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, was our speaker today. As Alison told us, and can be seen on their web site, the NNYCAA provides numerous services free of charge to those who may be suffering from or affected by Alzheimer's, including caregivers. The Alzheimer's Association also has research, education, lobbying and fund-raising roles, along with many opportunities for volunteers. A Capital Region Walk to End Alzheimer's is scheduled for September 21.
The organization has a toll-free 24/7 help line at 800-272-3900.
