History
The Alzheimer’s Association Houston and Southeast Texas Chapter has been serving the Greater Houston area for over
twenty years. The Chapter meets all twenty of the Better Business Bureau of Metropolitan Houston’s Standards for
charitable accountability.
The Houston and Southeast Texas Chapter began in 1980 as a grassroots organization meeting at a local church. Caregivers
Harry Walker and Al Malyn created the Chapter while caring for their wives with Alzheimer’s disease. The Chapter was
incorporated in 1982. From our humble beginnings as a volunteer-driven organization that primarily served Southwest
Houston, we have expanded into an organization with 22 staff members and over 300 volunteers who serve 37 counties.
