NAB is an intergenerational movement responding to the profound isolation and social disengagement experienced by people in the intermediate-to-late stages of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) who are living in long-term care facilities. Slowly, we build meaningful, lasting relationships with residents during weekly one-on-one visits. Meanwhile, the journey of discovering who they are, helps us to define, refine, and strengthen ourselves.
Our mission is to empower students and buddies to break through the boundaries imposed by Alzheimer’s Disease and discover a new identity together.
