Description

This special Alzheimer’s Talks is presented by Sunrise Senior Living.

Our guest speaker, Grace Whiting, President and CEO of the National Alliance for Caregiving, shares insights on resources and proposals to bring better systems and supports to family caregivers. Our guest moderator is Jill Lesser, an UsAgainstAlzheimer’s board member and President of our WomenAgainstAlzheimer’s network.

They discuss the changing face of caregiving and legislative measures underway to support caregivers, including the CHANGE (Concentrating on High Value Alzheimer’s Needs to Get to an End) Act. The CHANGE Act is bipartisan legislation that would encourage timely and accurate assessment, detection and diagnosis of Alzheimer’s; foster innovative approaches to support family caregivers; and remove regulatory barriers to disease-modifying treatments.
