That's what we mean by "network." The more we look around, the less alone we are.

The Alzheimer's Support Network is an independent nonprofit organization that brings caring people from South Central Massachusetts together. All our funds stay right in our area in a volunteer effort to:

• Promote the general well-being of people with Alzheimer's Disease and their families.
• Reinforce family members and caregivers with emotional and practical support services.
• Advocate to make quality services available and affordable.
• Share useful information through community education from caregivers and professionals.

ASN events and services provide opportunities for respite and appreciation for caregivers, as well as ways to learn, volunteer and support one another. The Alzheimer's Support Network of South Central Massachusetts also works in partnership with health care organizations, hospitals and professionals to offer early diagnosis, care and resources.

Energy is limited, time is precious.

Be it your own time or the time you have with a family member or friend, Alzheimer's Support Network activities and involvement are time well spent. They provide hope and sustain confidence, building our abilities and giving us greater perspective to meet challenges.
