“Alzheimer’s disease and other related dementias know no boundaries. To better assist the rapidly growing Hispanic/Latino community, MetLife Foundation has awarded the Alzheimer’s Association a $150,000 grant, to support the continuation of outreach activities in five Association chapters and help replicate these programs as “best practice” models in an additional six to eight chapters.

“This grant will help us continue our diversity initiatives and improve Alzheimer awareness, knowledge and care services in Hispanic communities across the country,” said Barbara Newhouse, Vice President of Chapter Services for the Alzheimer’s Association. “We are grateful to MetLife Foundation, which has consistently supported our outreach efforts for the last two decades.” “
