Memory and Aging Community Advisory Board - MACAB

Memory and Aging Community Advisory Board - MACAB To that end, a Memory and Aging Community Advisory Board was formed in 2004.

The MACAB is a group of dedicated people whose overall concern is the physical, mental, and social well-being of the middle-aged and older adult community of Greater Baltimore. The Johns Hopkins Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center recognizes the need to maintain an effective and mutually satisfying partnership with the community its serves. It is made up of local community leaders with an interest

in dementia, including representatives of the minority community (i.e., pastoral leaders, heads of community organizations, health officials from State/City/County Departments, political leaders, representatives of the Alzheimer’s Association, and families of patients who have been touched by Alzheimer’s Disease).
