disentangleAD

disentangleAD non-profit support of Alzheimer's care in south Mississippi Alzheimer’s disease (AD) can be devastating for both individuals and families.
(1)

As AD destroys personal memories, the sense of self slowly disintegrates. Friends and family (caregivers) often suffer from significant distress, depression, and exacerbation of their own health problems due to the overwhelming strain of caring for a loved one with AD. While medical science searches for disease-modifying therapies, improved diagnostic biomarkers, and hopefully an ultimate cure, we

believe that more can be done to help relieve a small portion of this burden. To [disənˈtaNGɡ(ə)l] is to extricate something or someone from a difficult situation. Our vision is for disentangleAD to become an organization that helps ease the burden of AD for residents in the Pine Belt region of south Mississippi. Our goal is to provide mini-grants designated for small, well-defined, time-limited needs associated with caring for an individual with AD.

Support Caregivers. Strengthen Community. Become a Sponsor.

Caregivers of those living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias are often overwhelmed and under-resourced. The disentangleAD Caregiver Conference is more than a one-day event — it’s part of our year-round commitment to supporting families and building sustainable care solutions.

Your sponsorship makes a meaningful impact.
When you partner with us:

You empower families by connecting them with essential services, tools, and local resources.

You support our Caregiver Grant Program, which provides direct financial relief and assistance to families throughout the year.

This is more than marketing. It’s an opportunity to invest in the people who give so much of themselves every day.

Become a sponsor today and be part of the solution.

Important step for an early Alzheimer's diagnosis.... this is real and will help extend access broadly across populations. Ask your doctor about screening.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared for marketing the first in vitro diagnostic device that tests blood, to aid in diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease.
