What We Do

Empowering caregivers with knowledge, skills,
and support, ADRC offers support groups, counseling
sessions, workshops, referrals, and various other
programs and services, many free to the public.

Florida
Brain Bank

Research is a critical component in understanding
and treating Alzheimer’s disease and other related
dementias. ADRC provides a wonderful opportunity
to participate in research through the State of Florida
Brain Bank, a program aimed at ultimately finding a
cure for Alzheimer’s disease.

Welcome to the Alzheimer's and Dementia Resource Center We empower caregivers with the knowledge, support and programs to help them prepare for and cope with the challenges that lie ahead. Our organization offers a variety of peer support groups, counseling sessions, educational programs and wellness events to help caregivers with the day-to-day tasks of caring for their loved ones, as well as maintaining their own health.

Roy
"I have participated in many of the wonderful services ADRC has to offer from Savvy Caregiver to the Men's Support Group. They have been a lifesaver in the challenges we all face as caregivers. I am beyond grateful to ADRC and believe there is no organization quite like it in Central Florida."
