The Emory Goizueta Brain Health Institute was honored to participate in the inaugural Atlanta Korean Senior Welfare Forum, hosted by the Atlanta Korean American Senior Association (AKASA) last Friday.

This important program addressed the challenges many Korean American older adults face in accessing healthcare, social services, housing, transportation, government assistance, and other essential resources due to language and cultural barriers.

Representing the Institute, Dr. James Lah, shared valuable information on brain health, healthy aging, Alzheimer's disease, and related dementias. Through community partnerships like this, we are working to make brain health information more accessible, and inclusive for the diverse communities across Georgia.

We applaud AKASA for its leadership in advancing education, awareness, and support for the Korean American senior community.
