Community Engagement at the Mesulam Institute

The Mesulam Institute for Cognitive Neurology & Alzheimer’s Disease is committed to advancing brain health equity by partnering with traditionally understudied communities. Through education, outreach and collaboration, we work to raise dementia awareness, promote early detection and support individuals and families affected by neurodegenerative diseases. By fostering meaningful, long-term partnerships with community organizations, healthcare providers and research institutions, we aim to bridge gaps in knowledge, access and care — ensuring that all communities have the resources they need to navigate brain health with confidence and dignity.
