  FACULTY GUIDE
  
  A Public Health Approach to Alzheimer’s and Other Dementias is an introductory curriculum from the Alzheimer’s Association that is intended to increase awareness of the impact of Alzheimer’s and other dementias as well as the role of public health. Developed as part of a cooperative agreement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Alzheimer’s Disease and Healthy Aging Program, and in partnership with Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health, this curriculum addresses cognitive health, cognitive impairment, and Alzheimer’s disease and is for use by undergraduate faculty in schools and programs of public health. It can also be adapted for other purposes. This work supports The Healthy Brain Initiative: The Public Health Road Map for State and National Partnerships (Road Map) goal of developing a competent workforce. The curriculum has four modules that are designed to be used individually or as a whole.
