Memory Care & Dementia · Maryland · Free

AFTD — support and research for FTD, the most common dementia under age 60. Relevant for caregivers needing dementia-specific behavior strategies — wandering, sundowning, aggression, refusal of care. Local chapters run free support groups — caregivers, early-stage patients, and adult children meet separately. Wandering registries (some free, some local) flag missing-person alerts to first responders within minutes. No cost to older adults or the people helping them.
