“Remembering for Those Who Can’t.”

Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month takes place every June to raise public understanding about Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia that affect millions worldwide. This month serves as a call to action—encouraging people to learn the warning signs, support research efforts, and stand in solidarity with those impacted. It’s also a time to recognize the dedication of caregivers and the importance of early diagnosis and treatment, which can make a meaningful difference in quality of life.

There are many meaningful ways to raise awareness during June. Wearing purple, the official color of the Alzheimer’s movement, is a simple but powerful gesture. People can participate in local awareness walks, share personal stories on social media, donate to Alzheimer’s research organizations, or host educational events in their communities. Even small efforts—like starting conversations about brain health— help reduce stigma and foster greater understanding and compassion for those living with the disease.
