Description
Many older adults with memory loss are never told they have dementia, and the gap is wider for Black and Latino adults. Julie Bobitt, Zohaib Zahir, and Krissy Roseberry review a 2023 Illinois campaign that tried to close that gap. Health groups teamed with local groups and health workers to teach at-risk adults about early screening.
Workers helped clients seek care and learn the signs of Alzheimer's disease and related illness. The review, done with a university partner, weighs how well the campaign reached people who are often missed. Findings can guide states that want fair early detection. Early care matters because support and planning work best when they start soon.
