    Description

    Community Educator Volunteer – Alzheimer’s Awareness & Brain Health

    Do you enjoy public speaking and want to make a meaningful impact in your community?

    The Alzheimer’s Association is seeking passionate volunteers to serve as Community Educators. Community Educators deliver educational presentations on Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and brain health to local groups, organizations, and community partners.

    This role plays a vital part in raising awareness, promoting early detection, reducing stigma, and connecting families to critical resources.

    We offer volunteer opportunities throughout the entire state of Louisiana, so location is not a barrier!

    Responsibilities:

    • Deliver 1-hour educational programs (in-person or virtual)
    • Represent the Alzheimer’s Association in the community
    • Engage audiences with accurate, compassionate information
    • Help expand access to brain health education

    What We Provide:

    • Comprehensive training
    • Presentation materials and ongoing support
    • Flexible scheduling
    • Meaningful leadership and public speaking experience

    Ideal Candidates:

    • Comfortable speaking to small and mid-sized groups
    • Passionate about brain health and community education
    • Background in healthcare, education, social work, ministry, or community service (preferred but not required)
    • Reliable and mission-driven

    Time Commitment:

    Flexible. Most volunteers deliver 1–2 presentations per month, but no minimum is required.
