Pennsylvania Department of Aging Receives Grant to Improve Alzheimer's Support

Date:9/17/2007

Using the grant money in partnership with the Alzheimer's Association, and collaborating through the Link offices, programs and services are delivered based on the expertise of multiple agencies working together to support people living with the disease.

The Administration on Aging grant will also provide additional training for professionals working directly with Alzheimer's patients and the creation of an early onset support group for caregivers and persons with Alzheimer's disease. Early onset Alzheimer's disease is diagnosed in individuals under the age of 65.
