Harvard College ALzheimer's Buddies

PBHA's Harvard College Alzheimer's Buddies responds to the isolation experienced by people with Alzheimer's disease through weekly one-on-one visits with dementia patients.

Our MISSION

PBHA’s Harvard College Alzheimer’s Buddies (HCAB) responds to the profound isolation and social disengagement experienced by people in the intermediate-to-late-stages of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Volunteers build meaningful emotional connections with dementia residents during weekly one-on-one visits, focusing on what is still present in their buddies and improving the life that they have despite limitations. HCAB currently visits patients at the Hebrew Senior Life Rehabilitation Center and Springhouse Senior Living Community in Massachusetts.
