Take the fight against Alzheimer's to Capitol Hill!
The fiscal year 2015 budget signed into law by President Obama last week incorporates the Alzheimer's Accountability Act and includes a $25 million increase for Alzheimer's disease research.
The tireless efforts of the Alzheimer's Association and its advocates made the difference in these victories — but there's still work to be done.
At the 2015 Alzheimer's Association Advocacy Forum, help build the national movement to end Alzheimer's disease:
- Learn how to advance Alzheimer's legislative priorities by delivering an effective message to lawmakers and their staffs.
- Work on tactics to build and leverage relationships with elected officials year-round both in Washington and at home.
- Hear from experts about how advocacy is changing the landscape of Washington and what you can do to ensure our message continues to have an impact.
Join us at the 2015 Advocacy Forum — and take the fight against Alzheimer's disease to Capitol Hill.
