FROM THE SITE:

Founded in 1982 by Dr. George G. Glenner, a UCSD physician
and research pathologist specializing in Alzheimer’s disease,
and his wife Joy Glenner, the organization was born out of
a heartfelt response to a late-night call from a caregiver
struggling with his wife’s dementia. At the end of his
emotional rope, the caregiver wanted to end both their
lives. The Glenners called the authorities, who came to
the family’s aid and discovered the caregiver with a loaded
gun.

The next day The George G. Glenner Alzheimer’s Family Centers
was created to help individuals struggling with similar
situations.

Today, Glenner Centers throughout San Diego help hundreds of
individuals remain socially and physically active in loving
home-like adult day health centers, thus delaying premature
institutional placement. Weekly family education services
help families understand the disease and to support their
role as caregiver. Additionally, collaborative partnerships
with leading San Diego institutions position Glenner on the
cutting edge of research, education, community advocacy and
care.
