YPAC: Young Professionals Alzheimer's Council
Who we are

The Young Professional Alzheimer’s Council (YPAC) is an auxiliary board of the Alzheimer’s Association Hudson Valley Chapter. The group consists of millennials committed to creating a world without Alzheimer’s. We host events throughout the year to engage our communities in and around the Hudson Valley in the fight against Alzheimer’s.
We provide opportunities for young professionals to become active members while serving their community. Group members will develop strong leadership and philanthropic skills that will serve their personal and professional lives. This group is intended for those with a personal connection to the disease, as well as those who do not have a connection but would like to learn more and contribute in the fight against it. This group can also serve as a support system for those who may have family members affected by the disease.
Personal time commitment is estimated to be an average of two to three hours per month. This time will increase depending on upcoming YPAC events.
Why join?
● Develop your professional and leadership skills
● Network with other passionate young professionals in the Lower Hudson Valley
● Gain a deeper knowledge and understanding of the nonprofit sector
● Contribute to the mission of the Alzheimer’s Association
● Willingness to devote individual time and effort to the improvement of YPAC events.
● Have the opportunity to learn more about dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and how to support those affected.
