About Us

History

Alzheimer Society Peel was incorporated in 1983 as a charitable non-profit Society, and to date has become the largest chapter across Canada. Last year alone, we worked diligently to provide more than 137,000 units of support and services to 60,000 Persons Living with Dementia and their Care Partners.

The Society provides services across the Region of Peel with locations throughout Mississauga. Our chapter promotes public and professional awareness of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias while offering various programs and services. All services and programs operate either free of charge or for a nominal fee. You do not need a diagnosis or a referral to access our services.

Alzheimer Society Peel works with all service providers and levels of government to ensure that optimum health and social services are provided for persons with Alzheimer's disease and their CarePartners in the Region of Peel.
