No major advance in Alzheimer’s and related dementias treatment, prevention, or care will be possible without robust clinical research. By joining a study or trial, you become a partner in helping researchers discover new ways to potentially diagnose, treat, and prevent Alzheimer’s and related dementias. You may also:
- Receive medical care and new treatments that are not yet available otherwise.
- Learn about the disease and your medical condition.
- Gain access to resources, such as educational materials and support groups.
- Help provide others with better treatments and prevention strategies in the future.

Sandra Shields, a founding member of the Without Warning support program, had a gift for writing poetry. Along with Nancy Swanson, our music therapist, the song Faith was created. This has become a special song to many of our members. Part of this song seems comforting at this time.
