Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Advisory CouncilGovernment

The Advisory Council on Alzheimer's Research, Care, and Services (frequently referred to as the Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Advisory Council) is a United States federal advisory body established under the Department of Health and Human Services. It is mandated to evaluate federal dementia initiatives, advise the HHS Secretary and Congress, and help develop and update the National Plan to Address Alzheimer's Disease. Created by the landmark National Alzheimer's Project Act (NAPA) signed into law in January 2011, it brings together federal agency leaders alongside public stakeholders, clinicians, and patient advocates.
