About the Alzheimer List
Overview
The Alzheimer List Homepage is the Internet Gateway for the Alzheimer List (AL), an e-mail based support group for family caregivers, persons with memory loss, and the professionals that serve them. Started in 1994, the AL is an open, public forum for communication about dementia care issues. Once subscribed, list users share questions, thoughts, ideas, feelings, etc., by sending e-mails to the AL email address, and these are, in turn, forwarded to all current members and are also saved in an online archive for later review.
Funding
The Alzheimer List is an educational service offered by the Washington University Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC), St, Louis, Missouri, USA. The AL is made possible, in part, through a grant from the National Institute on Aging (Grant P50-AG05681). Suggestions and feedback are welcomed at: webmaster@abraxas.wustl.edu or call (314) 286-2881.
