Shriver to be honored at Alzheimer’s Association Advocacy Forum
Maria Shriver, award-winning journalist and founder of The Women’s Alzheimer’s Movement, will be honored with the Alzheimer’s Association Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2017 Alzheimer’s Association Advocacy Forum. A longtime, essential voice for the Alzheimer’s community, Shriver has inspired families, scientists, advocates and elected officials to act in the fight against the disease. Her primary focus is on raising awareness on the disproportionate impact Alzheimer’s has on women and raising funds for women-based research.
Other highlights will include Alzheimer’s Association Champion Liz Hernandez of Access Hollywood receiving the Young Advocate Award, and former White House Press Secretary Mike McCurry serving as a featured speaker.
