The Alzheimer Society of B.C. exists to alleviate personal and social consequences of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, to promote public awareness and to search for the causes and the cure. Our vision is a world without Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, and that world begins with a society where people affected by dementia are welcomed, supported and included. Together with people with lived experience, we mobilize a broad community of care and support research into the disease to ensure people affected by dementia are not alone.
