Last week, more than 1,100 advocates from all 50 states gathered together in Washington, D.C., for the 2025 AIM Advocacy Forum. 

Whether it was their first or 10th time attending, advocates with their own unique yet somehow shared experiences felt connected and empowered by the Forum’s energy. On the first day, energized advocates kicked off the Advocacy Forum and committed to doing more in the fight against Alzheimer’s. Read more. 

During the National Alzheimer’s Dinner, advocates celebrated the 15th anniversary of AIM, and policy leaders such as Sens. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) and Bill Cassidy (R-La.) were honored for their critical roles in making Alzheimer’s a national priority. Actor and Alzheimer’s Association Celebrity Champion Diedrich Bader served as the evening’s emcee and shared his family’s experience with the disease. Read more.

On Hill Day, advocates turned Capitol Hill purple to rally bipartisan support for legislation crucial to the Alzheimer's community. No one traveled farther to be there than advocates from Hawaii and Alaska. Read more.

Thank you to all of our advocate volunteers who made their way to Washington, D.C., to be a part of the 2025 AIM Advocacy Forum, and to all those who work with persistence and passion year-round back home in their communities to ensure that Alzheimer's issues remain top of mind for members of Congress.
