A Woman's Nation Takes on Alzheimer's

October 18, 2010, 10:00am – 12:30pm

The Center for American Progress and the Alzheimer's Association invite you to attend a forum on the impact Alzheimer's has on families, the economy, caregivers, and especially women. The panel coincides with the Alzheimer's Association and First Lady of California Maria Shriver's October 15 release of The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Takes on Alzheimer's, the largest study ever conducted to look at the effect of Alzheimer's disease on American women as people with the disease, caregivers, and breadwinners.

The report comes on the heels of the 2009 Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Changes Everything, conducted in partnership with the Center for American Progress, that examined the historical trending of women into the workforce and the failure and opportunity of government, business, and media to adapt to how families live and work today.
