By women, for women.

 

Women continue to be at the epicenter of the Alzheimer's crisis. Not only are they more likely than men to be caregivers, women are also more likely to develop the disease. Of the more than 6 million people aged 65+ with Alzheimer's in the United States, nearly 4 million are women. 

Join us for the 2nd annual Women Conquer ALZ - a celebration of women and our strength, courage and dedication to end Alzheimer's disease. This cocktail event will shine a light on the latest in the search for a cure. Featuring keynote speaker: Courtney Kloske, Ph.D., Director of Scientific Engagement, Alzheimer's Association
