Impact of Statewide Investment in Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias in Georgia

Abstract

Background: By 2050, 14 million Americans are projected to have Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). Among older adults, African American (AA) have a higher risk than their non‐Hispanic White (NHW) counterparts. Despite higher ADRD risk, AA adults are less often evaluated in specialized memory disorder clinics.
