Why is this program so important?

The first ever county-level estimates of the prevalence of people with Alzheimer's dementia - in all 3,142 US counties - were released at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in July. Researchers found the highest prevalence of Alzheimer’s in the east and southeastern regions of the U.S. This new data shows every county in North Carolina having an average prevalence rate of 8.9 percent or higher in their 65+ population, although Lenoir County ranks third among counties with 10,000+ ages 65 and older at 14%. Read more at alz.org/nc here.

This is a collaborative partnership between the Alzheimer's Association Eastern NC Chapter, Neuse Regional Libraries, Lenoir County Public Health and Lenoir Council on Aging.
