Care Connects Us: Because We See You!
This November, we encourage everyone to reach out to a caregiver; listen to their story, and consider how we can better support those who care for others.
By making caregiving visible, we can build stronger communities and create a future where caregivers feel seen, their contributions are valued, and their needs are met, because, care connects us all.

Most if not all of us are familiar with Alzheimer's disease, but how about Lewy Body Dementia? It's the second most common form of dementia.

🧠 You’ve probably heard of Alzheimer’s disease. But what about Lewy body dementia (LBD)?

LBD is the second most common form of dementia, and it can affect thinking, movement, sleep, and mood.

Now is a great time to learn the signs and find support. Download or order a free NIA and NINDS booklet with LBD information for patients, families, and professionals: https://bit.ly/4kg9OWi.

💜 LBD is part of the National Plan to End Parkinson’s, too: https://bit.ly/4kiOrnj.
