Description:

Since 2012 Act Now Foundation has been creating Alzheimer’s capable communities by raising awareness and educating low-income, Hispanic and urban communities about Alzheimer’s disease, prevention, and early detection. Our mission is to reduce the impact of Alzheimer’s on urban communities and to engage these communities to build supportive, capable, and Alzheimer’s educated environments. In November of 2015, we opened the first Alzheimer’s Resource Center of Northern NJ to help communities become smarter, better trained, and more capable of dealing with the day-to-day challenges they face living and or caring for someone with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.
