Alzheimer's and Other Dementias
One in three older Americans dies with dementia, which is an umbrella term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with activities of daily living.

Foundations and other funders have joined federal and local governments in supporting research and implementation of many different types of dementia-related services.
