I do hereby proclaim the month of November 1986 as National Alzheimer's Disease Month.

I am encouraged by the progress that is being made toward those objectives and the plans which lie ahead.

Many Federal health promotion and disease prevention activities are underway at the Department of Health and Human Services.
