MI HR0317

Designates September 21, 2012, as Alzheimer's Action Day in Michigan to raise awareness about the disease and the need for education, support, and research.

Acknowledges that tens of thousands of families across Michigan are affected by Alzheimer's disease.

Notes that more than 35 million people worldwide are living with dementia and Alzheimer's is the only top-ten cause of death in America without a prevention, cure, or treatment to slow progression.

Calls for collective action to end Alzheimer's disease and move toward a world without it.
