Plenty of dementia-related services are provided through Alzheimer’s Indonesia. For instance, caregivers’ meetings, knowledge upskilling on Alzheimer’s for the Purple Troop cadres, early detection and screening of dementia, and awareness-raising campaigns about dementia involving youth (Alzheimer’s Indonesia, n.d.). In general, the activities are categorised into four main groups: caregiver meetings, education and training, seminars, and World’s Alzheimer Month. Alzheimer’s Indonesia has eighteen chapters across major cities in Indonesia (Jakarta, Bali, Bandung, Bekasi, Bengkalis, Bogor, Depok, Jakarta, Kupang, Malang, Manado, Medan, Salatiga, Semarang, Solo, Surabaya, Tangsel, and Yogyakarta).
