2 INTRODUCTION About the Alzheimer s Association The Alzheimer's Association is the world s leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's care and support and research. We address this global epidemic by providing information, education and support to the millions who face dementia every day, while advancing critical research toward methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure. Our mission is 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 is a world without Alzheimer s. Facts and Figures More than 5 million people have Alzheimer s disease including 330,000 in Texas. Every 67 seconds someone develops Alzheimer s; by 2050, someone will develop the disease every 33 seconds. Alzheimer's disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States and the only cause of death among the top 10 without a way to prevent, cure or even slow its progression. One in eight older Americans has Alzheimer's disease. There are approximately 500,000 people dying each year because they have Alzheimer s disease. In 2013, 15.5 million caregivers provided an estimated 17.7 billion hours of unpaid care valued at more than $220 billion. Nearly two-thirds of all Americans living with the disease are women. Sixty to 70 percent of all Alzheimer s and dementia caregivers are women. Women in their 60s are about twice as likely to develop Alzheimer s over the rest of their lives as breast cancer.
