Meet the people who have changed the face of Alzheimer’s and dementia

caregiving in our community.

Board of Directors

Frances Salles

Former Executive Director at Coming Home Connection

“The whole world is waiting for a cure for dementia, but while we wait, we must not let this distract us from providing compassionate dignified care, education and support to families living with dementia right now.”

Luke Nachtrab

President of Vista Living

"Unlike other organizations, they focus on education and support as opposed to raising money for research. A tremendous amount of money is raised and put towards the cure, but what do caregivers and those living with Alzheimer’s do in the meantime? The MCA offers training to caregivers, family members and professionals on how to maximize qualityof life for both the caregivers and the person being cared for. Simply put, our Santa Fe community would not be the same without The Memory Care Alliance”
