Wednesday, May 3, 9am-1:30pm, Ohio Statehouse

Join us for the 2017 Ohio Memory Day at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus on Wednesday, May 3. Now in its 19th year, the Ohio Memory Day is one of the longest-running and successful Alzheimer’s advocacy events in the nation. Memory Day offers participants the unique opportunity to meet other Alzheimer’s advocates from across the state as well as share their personal stories and concerns related to Alzheimer’s disease with their elected representatives and their staffers. In addition to meetings with legislators, a luncheon program, featuring prominent guest speakers, will be held in the Statehouse Atrium at 11:30am.

An estimated 210,000 Ohioans are affected by Alzheimer’s disease. Another 594,000 Ohioans serve as their caregivers. By participating in Memory Day, you not only speak for yourself but you speak on behalf of thousands who are dealing with similar challenges and life experiences.

Please RSVP to 1-800-272-3900 or to Caitlin Purk at cpurk@alz.org if you are able to attend.

Please note: backpacks are allowed in the Ohio Statehouse [after previously having been prohibited] but are not allowed in the Vern Riffe Center for Government and the Arts [after previously having been allowed].
