The Alzheimer's & Dementia Resource Center is the Central Florida community resource for families and non-professional care partners affected by Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias through education, advocacy, research opportunities, and compassionate support. The Alzheimer's & Dementia Resource Center focuses on "the forgotten victim," the care partner, who is coping with a difficult long-term disease, isolation, depression, and stress. By assisting families in their caregiving role with a wide variety of services, ADRC aims to increase the quality of life for those living with dementia and their care partners by reducing stress, promoting care partner wellness, and providing disease-specific education and support programs. The other important aspect of the Alzheimer's & Dementia Resource Center's mission is finding a cure for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. ADRC has a contract with the state of Florida's Brain Bank program to coordinate enrollment and brain autopsies for a 23-county area, working with leading medical facilities such as Orlando Health. The program coordinates the donation of brain tissue of those who have died of Alzheimer's and related diseases, thus providing national and worldwide scientists with access to rapid retrieval tissue for research studies. The program also provides families with closure through a definitive patient diagnosis and helps them understand their potential genetic risk of contracting dementia. Presently, only a brain autopsy at the time of death can confirm that an individual definitely suffered from Alzheimer's disease or one of the other 200 forms of dementia.
