Operations Focus for Alzheimer's Policy Development in Connecticut
Connecticut is experiencing increasing challenges in addressing Alzheimer’s disease, with over 80,000 residents currently diagnosed.

This funding initiative will help shape policies that prioritize research and effective patient care delivery in the long run.
In conclusion, this funding will significantly improve the operational capabilities of those engaged in Alzheimer's policy development in Connecticut. By focusing on comprehensive training programs, the initiative will empower local stakeholders to create policies that are informed, evidence-based, and responsive to the needs of Connecticut residents affected by Alzheimer’s disease, ensuring better access to care and necessary resources.
