Alzheimer's Association Greater New Jersey

Happy #NationalCatDay to all our feline friends who are helping us raise awareness in the fight to #ENDALZ! 😸🐾💜 

Thank you, Deena Coffee, CDP, and the entire Monmouth-Ocean #Walk2EndAlz committee for your support of the nearly 190,000 New Jerseyans living with Alzheimer’s and their 272,000 caregivers. Together we will #ENDALZ!

Bruce Sisler, Director of NJ State Affairs, along with advocates, Doreen Monks and Lisa Lewis, testified this morning before the NJ Assembly Finance and Insurance Committee, urging passage of biomarker legislation that ensures New Jerseyans can access necessary biomarker testing in order to reduce the time to receive a diagnosis and enable access to new disease-modifying treatments and care planning.

Kalin Konrad-Vicario, Ph.D., is committed to advancing the science around Alzheimer’s and other dementia as a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University. But long before she was in the lab 🔬, Konrad-Vicario was the kid behind Kalin’s Backyard Carnival 🎪, an annual fundraiser she held in support of her family’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s  team. The family joined Walk in honor of her grandmother, Barbara Bishop, who lived with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Read her inspiring story: https://lnkd.in/gEWgHWUt. #ENDALZ #Walk2EndAlz

There's no better way to celebrate a birthday than by raising funds for the Alzheimer’s Association’s The Longest Day! A huge thank you to Earl & Ellen Sutton, along with their family, friends, business associates, and co-workers, for coming together to celebrate Earl’s 65th birthday through his Earl Sutton Errors Tour. With their incredible generosity, Earl surpassed his goal by raising $8,000! #TheLongestDay

With forest fires in Oregon resulting in the cancellation of Michael Feldman's intended TLD event this year, he created his own 200 mile race, which included the Appalachian Trail and the Wild Goose 100 race in Wawayanda State Park in NJ, which he completed over a period of 99 hours. Listen to a podcast interview about it, at: https://lnkd.in/dgAS8BJ6... #TheLongestDay

What a fabulous morning today supporting The Alzheimer’s Association. Team Genesis came out to support those who are battling dementia and those who have passed and those who are caregivers. Together with The Alzheimer’s Association NJ Chapter we are making a difference 😊. Zachary Rohlff Freida S.

The Northwest Walk was moving and uplifting on a beautifully sunny fall morning. What a great day at Horseshoe Lake Park for 89 teams and more than 600 walkers!
