Physicians
We offer free support to individuals, families, and caregivers living with forms of dementia. Refer your patients and their families to The Bridge for the support and tools they need to navigate life with dementia.
In 2024, we strengthened our physician outreach by collaborating with Internal Medicine residents at LSU Health Shreveport. As part of their geriatric rotation, these residents engaged directly with The Bridge and caregivers, gaining firsthand insight into the challenges faced by individuals living with dementia and their families.

Our Vision
To create a community where no one affected by Alzheimer’s and dementia makes the journey alone.
Our Mission
The mission of The Bridge Alzheimer’s & Dementia Resource Center is to provide resources, education, and support services for those in our community diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, as well as to their family members and caregivers, and to promote awareness in our community.
Our Story
The Bridge Alzheimer’s & Dementia Resource Center, formerly The Alzheimer’s Agency of Shreveport/Bossier, Inc., is a relatively young organization that received 501(c)3 status in 2007. It was started by a coalition of persons whose lives had been affected by Alzheimer’s disease or dementia and faced many of the challenges brought on by the disease. The founding members were each personally aware of the lack of information and support available locally to help address both individual and family needs. Their goal was to provide resources, information and educational opportunities to those affected by Alzheimer’s and dementia to address the need.
