#The68Percent Community
68% of New Jersey residents say they know someone who has or had Alzheimer’s. If you are one of this community, we want to hear from you. Let the Garden State know how Alzheimer’s disease impacts the person diagnosed and those they know and love. We invite you to share your story – and listen to Doreen and Ruth.
