Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementia Surveillance

More than 180,000 Georgians are living with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias (ADRD). As Georgia's population ages, this number is expected to grow significantly over the next decade.

Georgia monitors Alzheimer's disease and related dementias using data from multiple sources, including tracking self-reported memory and thinking concerns as early signs of cognitive impairment.
