Volunteer

Join the LBDA Volunteer Team! Our Volunteer Team is made up of volunteers throughout the country who give their time and expertise to help support the fight against Lewy body dementias. LBDA estimates at least  3 in 100 people over 65 in the United States have some form of LBD, meaning approximately 1.3 million people living with LBD need your help! As an LBDA Volunteer you can facilitate a support group, provide a one-on-one connection with someone seeking help and information, distribute educational materials within your own community and much more. Many LBDA Volunteer opportunities are virtual and require only that you have access to telephone and internet service.
