The Indian Health Service (IHS) has allocated nearly $2 million through 10 new cooperative agreements to enhance care for individuals affected by Alzheimer’s disease and dementia in tribal and urban Indian health systems. With this latest funding, the agency’s total investment rises to over $5.9 million across three years, extending support to 16 communities. This announcement coincides with World Alzheimer’s Month and supports efforts to strengthen culturally rooted, community-driven models of care.
