WAM is the preeminent organization focused exclusively on women and Alzheimer’s. WAM was created to answer the question of why two out of every three brains that develop Alzheimer’s belong to women, and why women of color are at even higher risk. In 2010, The Shriver Report: A Woman’s Nation Takes on Alzheimer’s made news when it reported for the first time that contrary to prevailing opinion, Alzheimer’s did–and does–discriminate against women. This groundbreaking report, a collaboration between WAM Founder, Maria Shriver and the Alzheimer’s Association, opened a new chapter in the Alzheimer’s story, and ever since, WAM has been leading the way when it comes to Alzheimer’s and Women. We work to change the future of Alzheimer’s, one woman at a time.
