On Friday, April 20, 2018, the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Institute Regional Milwaukee Office hosted their 5th Annual Minority Health Month event, “Breaking the Silence: Addressing Alzheimer’s Disease in Communities of Color is a Public Health Issue,” at the Italian Conference Center, 631 E. Chicago St. This informative breakfast featured many speakers from the community, including two special guest speakers: Ohio Commission on Minority Health Executive Director Angela C. Dawson, MS, MRC, LCP (right); and Rush Alzheimer’s Disease Center researcher and Department of Behavioral Sciences Assistant Professor Crystal M. Glover, Ph.D. (left). As a surprise during the event’s awards ceremony, event organizer and Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Institute Regional Milwaukee Office Director Gina Green-Harris, MBA (center) was honored as the 2018 Spirit Award Recipient for her work to spread awareness on Alzheimer’s Disease to Milwaukee’s African American community.
