Statewide Services

The Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Institute’s (WAI) purpose is to increase awareness of Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders, to identify and disseminate strategies to reduce dementia risk, to convene stakeholders across the state, to improve access to quality dementia care services, and to develop and support culturally-tailored, effective clinical and community-based models of care.

If you have concerns about memory loss, thinking skills or behavioral changes in yourself or a loved one, an important first step toward diagnosis and treatment includes contacting your primary care provider or nearby memory clinic for an evaluation. A list of WAI-affiliated memory clinics (also called dementia diagnostic clinics) are offered on WAI’s website.
