Our Mission
We create a compassionate, welcoming, and restorative community for family caregivers across the state who are caring for those with dementia, chronic illness or debilitating disease.
Our Vision
We envision an Arkansas where all family caregivers are prepared, valued and comforted.
Our Promise
We provide access to free programming, information, education and support to Arkansas’s family caregivers. Family caregiving is a difficult – but also fulfilling – journey through an emotional and vulnerable time during someone’s life. It is our greatest calling to create the space where Arkansas caregivers can find what they need in order to best care for themselves and their family members. Through Alzheimer’s Arkansas, family caregivers are supported, empowered and comforted by their connections [or access] to and relationships with our well-trained team and other Arkansas caregivers
