NORTH DAKOTA ( KXNET ) — The Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) has plans for November 1 to kick off National Alzheimer’s Awareness Month.

Everyone is invited to sign up to “Light the World in Teal”, the AFA’s awareness color.

“Light the World in Teal aims to literally shine a spotlight on Alzheimer’s disease and show support for the millions of people living with it,” said AFA’s President and CEO, Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr. “Every site that signs up, whether it’s a multi-story building or a single-family home, helps to highlight the issue of Alzheimer’s disease. Sign up to shine up in teal for Alzheimer’s awareness on November 1.”

The program takes place annually in November as part of Alzheimer’s Awareness Month.

The initiative is designed to bring awareness to the growing health issue — one that affects over 6.7 million Americans.
