"Without advocacy vulnerable people cannot be heard or given credence...They cannot be supported, protected or defended and their rights will be lost. Without advocacy vulnerable people have no power and will be invisible."

- Michelle O'Flynn, Manager of Old Advocacy Incorporated

As one who lives with Alzheimer's dementia, my mom (#MyFavoriteGirl) can no longer speak and advocate for herself. I am now her voice--speaking up for, supporting, denouncing, and defending the issues and causes that will affect her.  My Voice Matters. Not just  for her, but also for my grandparents, aunts, uncles, and the millions of other persons who have also been affected by this dreadful disease. My voice matters for me, my siblings, my children and future generations. Your Voice Matters, Too!
