The Alzheimer's & Dementia Resource Center is the Central Florida community resource for families and non-professional caregivers affected by Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias through education, advocacy, research opportunities and compassionate support." Alzheimer's & Dementia Resource Center's focus is on "the forgotten victim," the caregiver, coping with a difficult long-term disease as well as isolation, depression and stress. By assisting families in their care giving role with a wide variety of services, ADRC's goal is to increase the quality of life to patients and family members by reducing caregiver stress and patient abuse, promoting caregiver wellness, providing disease-specific education and support programs and improving overall patient care.  The other important aspect of Alzheimer's & Dementia Resource Center's mission is finding a cure for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. ADRC has a contract with the state of Florida's Brain Bank program to coordinate enrollment and brain autopsies for a 23-county area, working with leading medical facilities such as Orlando Health.  The program coordinates the donation of brain tissue of those who have died with Alzheimer's and related diseases, thus providing national and worldwide scientists with access to rapid retrieval tissue for research studies. The program also provides families with closure through a definitive patient diagnosis and helping them understand their potential genetic risk of contacting dementia. Presently, only a brain autopsy at the time of death can confirm that an individual definitely suffered from Alzheimer's disease or one of the other 200 forms of dementia.

We play a key role in our community's continuum of long-term care services by offering affordable access to dementia-specific adult day health care programs, a variety of support services to help caregivers manage the day-to-day challenges of care, and community dementia education and outreach.
