Brazoria County Alzheimer’s Awareness Project

---

Started in 2012 as a partnership of the Gathering Place and the Brazoria County Health Department, the goals of BCAAP are to provide information about dementia and to encourage early detection. 

Each fall, the group partners with the Brazoria County Library System and senior independent facilities to provide memory screenings. For 6 years, BCAAP has sponsored the largest community-based screenings in the United States.

Annual activities include Caregiver Conferences and Resource Fairs, and Recognition and Response training for First Responders hosted by the Sheriff’s Office.
