Los costos directos del cuidado de las personas con enfermedad de Alzheimer u otras demencias se estiman en más de $ 200 mil millones. Se proyecta que estos costos se eleven a $ 1.1 billones para el año 2050. AFA otorga subvenciones a sus organizaciones miembros por servicios y apoyos para el cuidado, así como por investigaciones para una cura.
