More than 200 court clerks offices across the state will participate in the second annual Purple Out Day Friday, July 29 as they wear purple to raise awareness about Alzheimer’s and related dementias as well as raise funds to support the work of Alzheimer’s Tennessee.
Alzheimer’s disease and dementia impact at least 110,000 Tennesseans and the Board of Directors for the State Court Clerks Association of Tennessee voted to adopt and support Alzheimer’s Tennessee, a Tennessee-based not-for-profit organization that provides support services, promotes brain health through education, and champions research for better prevention and treatment strategies.
The court clerks encourage everyone to wear purple on Friday or donate here.
Information about Alzheimer’s and related dementias will be available to the public through trial court clerk offices and at www.alzTennessee.org or by calling toll-free statewide 888-326-9888.
