On Thursday, April 14, Arab American Family Services was proud to take part in the Illinois Action Summit to end Alzheimer’s disease in Springfield.
Attendees had the opportunity to engage with state legislators and advocates were able to visit several members of both the Illinois Senate and House of Representatives, sharing personal stories and asking lawmakers for their support of active legislation designed to make Illinois a dementia capable state.
There are nearly one million Illinois residents impacted by Alzheimer’s disease. We hope that by making our presence known, that we can help raise awareness of this terrible disease and fight for a cure.
