Need your help

This spring when I went to the Political Action Summit in Washington DC one of the things we were asking our congressional representatives was to support the National Alzheimer's Project Act. This Act would fund an office being set up within the Office of Health and Human Services to be responsible for coming up with a Plan to fight Alzheimer's and an interagency Advisory Council on Alzheimer's research and Treatment. Many countries already have an office such as this to coordinate the effects of Alzheimer's disease in their respective countries. We need this to make Alzheimer's a priority instead of brushing it under the carpet.

You can help. The link below will send a director message to the Secretary of the Health and human Services agency, Kathleen Sebelius. You just need to fill in the blanks and hit your send key. Please take a moment to do this -- it will help everyone!
