Date with a Cure

At our annual research forum, eight of Southern California’s most respected dementia researchers gathered virtually to answer your questions about the progress happening behind the scenes of ongoing clinical trials. Lecanemab was one of the drug discussed that was being tested to slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, and it became FDA approved a few months later. More insights & the full video >

Rides4ALZ

We kicked off the Rides4ALZ 2023 with over 350 participants as they glided through the county and met up for the after party at AleSmith Brewing. San Diego Harley-Davidson Owners (HOG) was the top team, but everyone contributed into making this a fun day full of laughs and memories. View the recap & photos >

As usual, the Walk4ALZ in Balboa Park was an incredible and emotional day with our community coming together to walk for their loved ones. The Men Remember was the top team this year, and we raised over $480,000 to support people impacted by dementia in San Diego County. Read about the event & view photos >
