ALZHEIMERS DISEASE AND RELATED DISORDERS NEW YORK CITY INC

CaringKind, officially known as ALZHEIMERS DISEASE AND RELATED DISORDERS NEW YORK CITY INC, is a New York City-based non-profit organization dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care and support services for individuals and families affected by Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Its mission also includes advancing research to ultimately eliminate Alzheimer's disease. Headquartered at 360 Lexington Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, NY, CaringKind operates as a leading expert in Alzheimer's and dementia care in the city.

The organization offers a wide array of free, person-centered services designed to support both those living with dementia and their caregivers. Key offerings include a 24-hour Helpline staffed by dementia specialists, personalized care consultations and coaching, and a robust network of support and bereavement groups. CaringKind also provides extensive education programs and seminars for families and professionals, early-stage services focusing on social connection and cognitive stimulation, and specialized programs like the MedicAlert® NYC Wanderer's Safety Program and a Palliative and Residential Care Program. These services are often available in multiple languages to serve diverse communities.

In recent developments, CaringKind launched its redesigned website, WeAreCaringKind.org, in March 2026 to enhance accessibility to its support services. The organization further strengthened its leadership in April 2026 by appointing three new members to its Board of Directors, bringing expertise in aging, Alzheimer's research, and finance. Led by President and CEO Eleonora Tornatore-Mikesh, CaringKind continues to be a prominent voice in dementia care, as evidenced by its sold-out Inaugural Dementia Education Conference in March 2026 and successful fundraising events like the 37th Annual Alzheimer's Walk & Brain Health Day in October 2025, which raised over $655,000.
