About UsAgainstAlzheimer’s

UsAgainstAlzheimer’s (UsA2) exists to conquer Alzheimer’s disease. We take on its toughest problems, bringing all of Us together to break down barriers, advocate for research, innovate, and drive the changes that matter most to people living with the disease. We will not rest until brain-span equals lifespan for everyone. Learn more at www.usagainstalzheimers.org.

We believe that ending Alzheimer’s will require bringing all of us to the fight. As a result, keys to our work are advocating, convening, innovating, and collaborating—with those living with the disease, government, other advocacy groups, industry, researchers, and thought leaders. We are committed to the following objectives:

•  Increase public and private resources for Alzheimer’s research
•  Increase the diversity and speed of clinical trials for Alzheimer’s disease
• Increase attention to brain health to delay onset of Alzheimer's and increase early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of Alzheimer's
• Include insights and preferences of individuals living with Alzheimer’s and their care partners in research, drug development, regulatory, and Medicare decisions
• Advance national care goals and policies in support of individuals living with Alzheimer’s and their care partners
• Catalyze a movement to demand effective, accessible prevention, testing, and treatment

Until we eliminate the disease itself, eliminate its disparate impact on women and people of color

UsAgainstAlzheimer’s promotes a culture of inclusion and seeks talented staff from diverse backgrounds. UsAgainstAlzheimer’s does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, national or ethnic origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other legally protected factor.
