The mission of the VIRGINIA'S ALZHEIMER'S COMMISSION ALZPOSSIBLE INITIATIVE is to establish a much-needed organizational structure for coordinating purposeful activities and initiatives on Alzheimer’s and other dementing illnesses within the Commonwealth. The AlzPossible is to be established as a virtual center or a center without walls. The virtual center concept is a hybrid organization designed to leverage intellectual assets, rather than physical assets, to attain its corporate objectives. Whenever possible, the objective is to form partnerships among groups or organizations within the Commonwealth, to take advantage of their respective talents and resources, and to advance the public health goals of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

This project was supported, in part by grants 90AZ2771/90AI0017/01 from the U.S. Administration on Aging, Department of Health and Human Services, Washington, D.C. 20201. Grantees undertaking projects under government sponsorship are encouraged to express freely their findings and conclusions. Points of view or opinions do not, therefore, necessarily represent official Administration on Aging policy.

Beginning in 2011, webinars have been funded in-part through the Geriatric Training and Education Initiative.
