Thank You From Our Founder

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Thank you for your support and participation in the 2026 Alter Dementia Summit. This year's summit focused on brain health, dementia care, and community engagement and it was our absolute pleasure to have you join us!

By bringing together researchers, healthcare professionals, caregivers, advocates, and members of the African American community, we were able to foster meaningful conversations around dementia-related concerns, strengthen support for families, and explore sustainable solutions that advance brain health equity.

Your presence, insights, and commitment helped make this gathering impactful and collaborative. Together, we continue to build stronger partnerships and create pathways toward greater dementia awareness, improved caregiving and support, and more inclusive community-centered approaches to brain health.

We sincerely appreciate your engagement and look forward to continuing this important work together.

With gratitude,
