Our Mission

Our Mission The Alzheimer’s / Dementia Rotarian Action Group (ADRAG) supports its vision by supporting Rotary and Rotaract clubs and districts as they plan and execute meaningful projects and programs centered on Alzheimer’s and dementia. This support will take many forms including the education of 1.2 million Rotarians and Rotary leaders on the latest scientific research in the fight to find a cure for Alzheimer’s disease and about the disease’s devastating impact on communities and families. ADRAG will also promote Rotary and Rotaract projects that work within Rotary International’s Disease Prevention and Treatment Area of Focus among the communities Rotary serves in over 200 countries around the world.
