Description:Since the initial creation of the Healthy Brain Initiative (HBI) in 2005, HBI partners have worked together to implement public health strategies that promote brain health, address dementia and support people with dementia and their caregivers. The Healthy Brain Initiative Road Map Series guides this effort by creating a framework for public health action. It reflects the longstanding collaboration between the Alzheimer’s Association and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to advance understanding and inclusion of cognitive decline as a central part of public health practice. This newest Road Map in the series — Healthy Brain Initiative: State and Local Road Map for Public Health, 2023– 2027 — is a guidebook for state and local public health practitioners to address brain health in their communities.
Much has been learned about how public health systems can impact brain health. Public health systems are commonly defined as “all public, private, and voluntary entities that contribute to the delivery of essential public health services within a jurisdiction.” The efforts of these systems have led to an increasing number of states and jurisdictions creating, updating and implementing plans that address brain health, cognitive impairment, dementia and caregiving. Their work has been accelerated by passage of the Building Our Largest Dementia Infrastructure for Alzheimer’s Act (BOLD Act) (Public Law 155-406) in 2018. The BOLD Act supports public health efforts for strengthening systems, environments and policies to promote risk reduction, improve early detection and diagnosis, prevent and manage comorbidities, avoid preventable hospitalizations and support dementia caregiving. This Road Map builds on the progress to date and advances equity by fully integrating brain health and caregiving into state and local public health practice and addressing social determinants of health that impact brain health across the life course.
