💜 November is National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month 💜

More than 6 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s — and behind every diagnosis is a family, a story, and an incredible amount of love and strength.

This month, we honor those living with Alzheimer’s and the caregivers who walk beside them every day. Together, we can continue raising awareness, sharing knowledge, and offering support to families navigating memory loss.

At Dowda Senior Consultants, we’re here to guide, educate, and stand beside families through every step of the dementia journey. You’re not alone. 💜

Last Saturday at the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, we heard so many powerful stories from families and friends touched by this disease. 💜

Every story reminds us why we walk — and how vital it is to come together as a community to raise awareness, support research, and give each other hope.

We’re thrilled to share that this walk raised over $1.1 million to fund research and support programs for those affected by Alzheimer’s.

Thank you to everyone who shared, walked, and stood with us. Together, we will find a cure. 🫶🏼
