Registration and Request for Public Comment Now Open for the Dementia Risk Reduction Summit

Registration and request for public comment are now open for the first-ever Dementia Risk Reduction Summit on May 16-17, 2023, at the CDC in Atlanta, Georgia. The Summit is sponsored by the BOLD Public Health Center of Excellence on Dementia Risk Reduction at the Alzheimer’s Association. The Summit will focus on public health’s role in addressing cognitive decline and dementia risk factors, and how public health can act across the prevention spectrum to help all communities affected. In identifying possible actions, the public is also invited to offer ideas and suggestions for review and consideration. Input is welcome even if you are not able to attend the Summit. Input can be submitted here by April 30, 2023.

The Summit provides both learning and networking opportunities, including exploring collaborative approaches to dementia risk reduction. There is no cost to attend, and public health officials who are not BOLD program grantees are eligible for travel scholarships. There is limited seating, so register today to reserve your seat.

For more information, visit the Summit webpage or contact CenterOfExcellence@alz.org.
