Alzheimer's Assoc. Central & Western Virginia Chapter

About Our Chapter
The Alzheimer's Association Central and Western Virginia serves 51 cities and counties in the central and western regions of Virginia including Charlottesville, Danville, Harrisonburg, Lynchburg and Roanoke. We help all those facing Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias by providing support groups and educational resources, while advancing crucial research and public policy initiatives.

Our mission: To eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.

Our vision: A world without Alzheimer's®.


The Alzheimer’s Association provides services to the central and western Virginia community. Our support groups are led by trained volunteers and are offered regularly. Our education programs for the general public, both online and in person, feature information on topics such as diagnosis, warning signs, communication, living with Alzheimer’s disease and caregiving techniques.
