June is Alzheimer's and Brain Health Awareness Month! Dementia affects all aspects of Community Health Services: hospice, home health, and public health, which is why we have a team at the Alzheimer's Association's Northeast Iowa Walk to End Alzheimer's.

All are welcome on our team - join us today and help us show our support for the families in our community who have been touched by dementia.

Support Howard County Community Hospice and Home Health in the fight to end Alzheimer's. Donate today to help them reach their goal.
