02 · The Reality
MCI & Dementia · The Facts

Dementia does not discriminate — and the cost is staggering.

Wealth, fame, status — none of it offers protection. Every family is a candidate, and the financial burden lands hardest on those least able to carry it.

The Urgent Need

The ONLY window to stop Dementia. Yet 92% of Americans miss it.

01
No cure exists once dementia develops. Current treatments slow symptoms; they do not reverse them.
02
MCI is the precursor stage — the only window where intervention can still change the trajectory before dementia takes hold.
03
92% of Americans with MCI are never diagnosed until the disease has progressed past the point of meaningful intervention.
The Opportunity
Up to 51% of MCI cases can return to normal cognition — if identified and treated early.

05 · How To Participate
For Individuals & Families

Four simple steps. One critical window.

Community gathering
5 minutes That's all it takes.
  1. 1

    Take the free screening

    Walk in. No insurance, no appointment, no cost. The whole assessment takes about as long as your morning coffee.

  2. 2

    Sign up — and bring loved ones

    Spouses, parents, siblings, friends. The earliest signs are easiest to spot when families are screened together.

  3. 3

    Share with your circle

    Tell your neighbors, your church, your community group. Awareness saves lives that early diagnosis can change.

  4. 4

    Don't wait until it's too late

    The reversible window is short. Acting today is the difference between recovery and managed decline.
