About Us
Over 600,000 people in New Jersey are impacted by Alzheimer’s
For over 38 years, Alzheimer’s New Jersey® has been here for our local communities, providing support to families impacted by Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. In 2015, our Board of Directors made the difficult decision to disaffiliate from the Alzheimer’s Association in response to the Association’s decision to merge all independent Chapters into a single national corporation – ending local authority to make independent decisions impacting our communities.
We changed our name from Alzheimer’s Association, Greater New Jersey Chapter to Alzheimer’s New Jersey® to maintain our vital local focus as an independent New Jersey not for profit organization. We knew then what we know now – New Jersey’s 600,000 people affected by Alzheimer’s need an organization completely dedicated to them.
Our Name – Alzheimer’s New Jersey
Reflects our strong local commitment.
As we look to the future, we will continue to focus on expanding and developing vital programs, strong community partnerships, and greater awareness. As the leading Alzheimer’s organization in New Jersey, we help local families have the best days possible. We will continue to build on our 38-year legacy of trust, care, and hope, working together with our Board, donors, volunteers, community partners and other friends.
When Alzheimer’s touches your life – we are here.
