Alzheimer's disease affects countless lives, not only for those diagnosed but for families, caregivers, and communities who feel the impact every day. Approximately 250,600 Illinois residents aged 65 and older are currently living with Alzheimer’s, a number projected to climb to 260,000 by 2025, signaling a need for urgent attention and collective action. For these individuals and their loved ones, Alzheimer’s is a daily reality that reshapes lives, routines, and futures.
