Alzheimer’s Disease Initiative

The Alzheimer’s Disease Initiative (ADI) provides services to individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and/or similar memory disorders, and their families. Supportive services include: counseling, consumable medical supplies, caregiver training, and respite for caregivers.  Services are authorized by a case manager based on a comprehensive assessment and unmet needs identified during that assessment.

The Alzheimer’s Association is a national nonprofit and leader in the fight to end Alzheimer’s and all other dementia. They accomplish this by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support.  For more information, visit  https://www.alz.org/seflorida  or call the 24/7 Helpline at 800-272-3900.

The ACTS 2 Project provides support to African-American Alzheimer’s caregivers. Through their FREE caregiving support sessions, you will learn the essential skills needed to support your loved ones. In addition, ACTS 2 will provide FREE telephone-based training and support sessions when you need them.
