After serious consideration the Board of Directors of the former Eastern North Carolina Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association decided that it was in the best interest of those residing in North Carolina to disaffiliate from the National Alzheimer’s Association to become Alzheimers North Carolina, Inc.. A different name but the same mission, the same programs and services, the same concern for those dealing with Alzheimer’s disease, the same location and the same staff that have served North Carolinians in Eastern North Carolina for a quarter of a century—only the name is different. From the Triangle to the Coast of North Carolina (51 of North Carolina’s 100 counties) we have served individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, their families and professional caregivers for the past 28 years. We hope you our volunteers, donors and families will support our decision to utilize the funding entrusted to us to meet the needs of those needing our services in North Carolina.
