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.

LBDA 2008 Volunteer of the Year
LBDA is proud to name Victoria Ruff as our 2008 Volunteer of the Year. Victoria hails from Boston, MA, where she cared for her mother who passed away from LBD. She joined LBDA in 2006 and currently sits on the Outreach Committee. She has made the LBDA Chat Room a valuable resource for caregivers and others affected by LBD to meet online in real-time. Victoria leads an LBD support group and has helped to bring information and resources on Lewy body dementias to local facilities. Most recently, Victoria designed and led a project which reached out to hundreds of doctors and facilities across the United States, inviting physicians to self-report to LBDA if they treat Lewy body dementias. Thank you, Victoria, for your outstanding work!
