Already more than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's and as many as 15 million people are providing unpaid care and support. And this massive group is in need of information and resources. The Alzheimer's Association has invested in education campaigns and initiatives to increase knowledge about Alzheimer's disease and awareness of the Alzheimer's Association communicating our role as leaders of the cause. Key messages include the importance of early detection, resources for people with Alzheimer's and their families, and the societal impact of the disease.

Return Reference Explanation
Schedule C, Part II-B, Line 1a VOLUNTEERS Most of the Association's advocacy is through volunteers. Additionally the association has training to develop and organize chapter based grassroots activities. As Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, hereafter referred to as Alzheimer's disease, threaten to bankrupt families, businesses and the healthcare system, scientists are moving closer to finding better treatments that could alter the course of the disease. The Alzheimer's Association advocates for public policies aimed at advancing research toward better therapies, detection, methods of prevention and ultimately a cure, as well as for high quality healthcare and long term services and support for people with Alzheimer's and their families. This includes advocacy for better care for people and families already facing Alzheimer's. Advocacy activities also include collaborating with other organizations to improve quality care and raise awareness of key issues.
Schedule C, Part II-B, Line 1c MEDIA ADVERTISEMENTS Media advertisements were run in Washington, D.C. for key advocacy awareness opportunities during the year.
Schedule C, Part II-B, Line 1d MAILING TO MEMBERS, LEGISLATORS OR THE PUBLIC Mailing costs to distribute Facts and Figures to legislators.
Schedule C, Part II-B, Line 1e PUBLICATIONS, OR PUBLISHED OR BROADCAST STATEMENTS The Association distributed Federal and State Updates approximately 41 times during the year.
Schedule C, Part II-B, Line 1g DIRECT CONTACT The Association utilized Appropriation Consultants to make direct contact with legislators.

Return Reference Explanation
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 INTENDED USES OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS Permanently restricted net assets are restricted as investments in perpetuity. The Association's endowment only consists of donor-restricted endowment funds. Net assets associated with the Association's endowment funds are classified and reported based on the existence of donor-imposed restrictions. Donors restrict the earnings of some of the Association's endowment funds to fund the Association's research program. In accordance with donor stipulations, the income generated from these assets is restricted for research (approximately 51%) or not purpose restricted (approximately 49%). The Association accounts for endowment net assets by preserving the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment fund absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. As a result, the Association classifies as permanently restricted net assets (1) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (2) the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment and (3) accumulations to the permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the endowment fund. The Association considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds: - The duration and preservation of the fund. - The purposes of the Association and the donor-restricted endowment fund. - General economic conditions. - The possible effects of inflation and deflation. - The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments. - Other resources of the Association. - The investment policies of the Association. The Association has adopted an investment policy that attempts to provide a predictable stream of funding to programs supported by its endowment while seeking to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets. As of June 30, 2016, endowment assets only include those assets of donor-restricted funds that the Association must hold in perpetuity, as the Association does not have any board-designated endowment funds. Under this policy, as approved by the board of directors, the endowment assets are invested in a manner that is intended to provide adequate liquidity, maximizing returns on all funds invested and achieving full employment of all available funds as earning assets. The Association has an active finance committee and investment sub-committee that meets regularly to ensure that the objectives of the investment policy are met, and that the strategies used to meet the objectives are in accordance with the investment policy. The Association's policy is to appropriate spending amounts deemed prudent for donor-restricted funds.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 The Association and Alzheimer's Impact Movement (AIM) have received favorable determination letters from the Internal Revenue Service, stating that they are exempt from federal income taxes under the provisions of Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (IRC), as organizations described in Sections 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4), respectively, except for income taxes pertaining to unrelated business income. Alzheimer's Impact Movement Political Action Committee (AIMPAC) is a political action committee organization exempt from federal taxes under Section 527 of the IRC. The Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association of Canada, Inc. is a not-for-profit Canadian entity incorporated on June 4, 2015. The application for charitable status is still pending in Canada; therefore, this entity does not yet have a tax exemption. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that requires tax effects from uncertain tax positions to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. Management has determined there are no material uncertain positions that require recognition in the consolidated financial statements and, as such, no provision for income taxes is reflected. Additionally, there is no interest or penalties recognized in the consolidated statements of activities or statements of financial position. Aside from the current year, the tax years ended 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 are still open to audit for both federal and state purposes.

ReturnReference Explanation
Schedule F, Part I, Line 2 PROCEDURE FOR MONITORING USE OF GRANT FUNDS OUTSIDE U.S. The over-sight of the scientific integrity of the Alzheimer's Association National and International Research Grant Program is three-fold. First, the Alzheimer's Association voluntary Medical & Scientific Advisory Council along with the Alzheimer's Association Medical & Scientific Relations division, ensures peer review and high quality of funded awards during the grant review process and develops focused requests for applications (RFAs) based on identified needs in the Alzheimer research community. Second, the Alzheimer's Association is engaged in a portfolio analysis of scientific areas of investment to monitor the diversity of the grants portfolio, potential gaps in research funding, and potential overlap of areas funded. The analysis informs future funding decisions and areas of RFA focus. Third, there is a detailed process once a grant is awarded to monitor program and scientific and financial integrity. The Alzheimer's Association monitors the use of grant funds both inside and outside of the United States as follows: All awardees are required to provide annual and in some cases bi-annual reporting to the Alzheimer's Association on both the status of the research project and financial expenditures associated with the award. Several programs are leveraged funding opportunities with partner organizations. These research projects and financial expenditure reports are shared between the partner organization(s). Sixty days prior to the anniversary of the award, an Alzheimer's Association Post-Award Specialist notifies all researchers and all designated institutional financial officials with fiscal responsibility for the award of the required reports, which include an interim scientific report, and interim financial report and documentation of any publications as a result of Association funding. The institutional official who has fiscal responsibility for the award cannot be the primary investigator of the project. The Alzheimer's Association provides a template for the interim scientific report and a template for the interim financial report, both of which are available for download by the researchers as well as the official with fiscal responsibility for the grant at the awarded institution at https://proposalcentral.altum.com/login.asp. The financial report must be signed by the institutional official with fiscal responsibility, and all reports must be uploaded by the award recipient to Proposal Central. After receipt, all financial reports are reviewed by an Alzheimer's Association Post-Award Specialist for accuracy and consistency with the agreed upon budget. In addition, the Association requires protocol continuation approval (i.e., IACUC, IRB, RDNA) annually, if applicable for the research project. Any subsequent payments to grant awardees are generated after the receipt and approval by the Chief Science Officer, Medical and Scientific Relations. At the conclusion of the award, all reports/publication(s) are due 90 days after the award expires and must be uploaded to Proposal Central online system. The financial report must be signed by the institutional official who has fiscal responsibility for the award. Publication(s) as accepted are uploaded to Proposal Central during and after the duration of the grant. It is expected that awardees will continue to maintain record of any publication(s) acknowledging the Alzheimer's Association. Data generated as a result of Alzheimer's Association funded work is subject to data sharing, as a condition of award. Data and other outputs of the project are subjected to this policy for quick, reasonable submissions for completed work. Further, Awardees agree to submit/share data, as applicable, through the Global Alzheimer's Association Interactive Network (GAAIN*), a global infrastructure connected research studies from around the world through one portal where data can be interrogated in aggregate for analysis using a virtual machine. GAAIN is wholly funded by the Alzheimer's Association. In addition, the Association requests, monitors, and follows-up to ensure submission compliance on all awarded contracts and that financial reporting requirements are met. Awardees' financial reports are audited annually to ensure eligibility for continued funding. Delinquent report(s) may result in the withdrawal of funding. Researchers are informed that delinquent reporting could lead to withdrawal of funding when the request for annual report(s) is sent. If funding is withdrawn due to delinquent reports, any unspent funds must be returned to the Alzheimer's Association. This Researcher becomes ineligible to apply for funding from the Alzheimer's Association. Foreign Institutions are required to submit one of the following as verification of Non-Profit status: - Organization's charter, bylaws and other governing documents (In english, if possible). In cases where translation is not possible, a dated and signed letter in english from the rector or other authorized signing official of the institution is acceptable. - documentation of non-profit designation from organization's government. For-profit organizations are not eligible to apply to the Alzheimer's Association's International Research Grant Program, with the exception of the Part the Cloud Translational Research Grant Program AND PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS SUCH AS BIOMARKERS ACROSS NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES (BAND). Unless otherwise stated in program, all institutions are required to submit verification of their non-profit status dated within the last five years (e.g., IRS tax determination letter). If the irs determination letter is dated prior to this five year period, the institution is required to provide documentation from an authorized SIGNING OFFICIAL IN THEIR GRANTS AND CONTRACTS OFFICE OR OFFICE OF SPONSORED RESEARCH to confirm there has not been a status change for the organization. For the Part the Cloud Translational Research Grant Program, any for-profit applicant is required to submit the Organization's financial statements. Prior to award confirmation, the Medical and Scientific Relations Division verifies that each awardee is compliant with the U.S. Patriot Act and does not appear on the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) lists. A FORM IS COMPLETED FOR EACH APPROVED ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION AWARDEE THAT VERIFIES COMPLIANCE WITH THE U.S. Patriot Act AND UPLOADED TO THEIR ONLINE FILE AT PROPOSAL CENTRAL PRIOR TO PAYMENT BEING SENT TO THE AWARDEE. IN THE EVENT THAT A POSITIVE MATCH TO ONE OF THE SDN LISTS IS FOUND BY THE ASSOCIATION, IT WOULD BE IMMEDIATELY REPORTED TO THE ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION LEGAL DEPARTMENT FOR APPROPRIATE HANDLING AND FOLLOW-UP. For transactions unrelated to the International Research Grant Program in the Medical and Scientific Department, the same verification is performed. The Alzheimer's Association monitors the scientific advances of the Association's grant awardees by maintaining records of publications, presentations, and intellectual property that result from funded studies. The Association requires the grant recipient to notify the Alzheimer's Association on an annual basis with updates to these records. Follow-on funding from federal agencies is also monitored. * These are names that are trademarks to Alzheimer's Association

Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 PROCEDURE FOR MONITORING USE OF GRANT FUNDS INSIDE U.S. The over-sight of the scientific integrity of the Alzheimer's Association National and International Research Grant Program is three-fold. First, the Alzheimer's Association voluntary Medical & Scientific Advisory Council along with the Alzheimer's Association Medical & Scientific Relations division, ensures peer review and high quality of funded awards during the grant review process and develops focused requests for applications (RFAs) based on identified needs in the Alzheimer research community. Second, the Alzheimer's Association is engaged in a portfolio analysis of scientific areas of investment to monitor the diversity of the grants portfolio, potential gaps in research funding, and potential overlap of areas funded. The analysis informs future funding decisions and areas of RFA focus. Third, there is a detailed process once a grant is awarded to monitor program and scientific and financial integrity. The Alzheimer's Association monitors the use of grant funds both inside and outside of the United States as follows: All awardees are required to provide annual and in some cases bi-annual reporting to the Alzheimer's Association on both the status of the research project and financial expenditures associated with the award. Several programs are leveraged funding opportunities with partner organizations. These research projects and financial expenditure reports are shared between the partner organization(s). Sixty days prior to the anniversary of the award, an Alzheimer's Association Post-Award Specialist notifies all researchers and all designated institutional financial officials with fiscal responsibility for the award of the required reports, which include an interim scientific report, and interim financial report and documentation of any publications as a result of Association funding. The institutional official who has fiscal responsibility for the award cannot be the primary investigator of the project. The Alzheimer's Association provides a template for the interim scientific report and a template for the interim financial report, both of which are available for download by the researchers as well as the official with fiscal responsibility for the grant at the awarded institution at https://proposalcentral.altum.com/login.asp. The financial report must be signed by the institutional official with fiscal responsibility, and all reports must be uploaded by the award recipient to Proposal Central. After receipt, all financial reports are reviewed by an Alzheimer's Association Post-Award Specialist for accuracy and consistency with the agreed upon budget. In addition, the Association requires protocol continuation approval (i.e., IACUC, IRB, RDNA) annually, if applicable for the research project. Any subsequent payments to grant awardees are generated after the receipt and approval by the Chief Science Officer, Medical and Scientific Relations. At the conclusion of the award, all reports/publication(s) are due 90 days after the award expires and must be uploaded to Proposal Central online system. The financial report must be signed by the institutional official who has fiscal responsibility for the award. Publication(s) as accepted are uploaded to Proposal Central during and after the duration of the grant. It is expected that awardees will continue to maintain record of any publication(s) acknowledging the Alzheimer's Association. Data generated as a result of Alzheimer's Association funded work is subject to data sharing, as a condition of award. Data and other outputs of the project are subjected to this policy for quick, reasonable submissions for completed work. Further, Awardees agree to submit/share data, as applicable, through the Global Alzheimer's Association Interactive Network (GAAIN*), a global infrastructure connected research studies from around the world through one portal where data can be interrogated in aggregate for analysis using a virtual machine. GAAIN is wholly funded by the Alzheimer's Association. In addition, the Association requests, monitors, and follows-up to ensure submission compliance on all awarded contracts and that financial reporting requirements are met. Awardees' financial reports are audited annually to ensure eligibility for continued funding. Delinquent report(s) may result in the withdrawal of funding. Researchers are informed that delinquent reporting could lead to withdrawal of funding when the request for annual report(s) is sent. If funding is withdrawn due to delinquent reports, any unspent funds must be returned to the Alzheimer's Association. This Researcher becomes ineligible to apply for funding from the Alzheimer's Association. For-profit organizations are not eligible to apply to the Alzheimer's Association's International Research Grant Program, with the exception of the Part the Cloud Translational Research Grant Program AND PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS SUCH AS BIOMARKERS ACROSS NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES (BAND). Unless otherwise stated in program, all institutions are required to submit verification of their non-profit status dated within the last five years (e.g., IRS tax determination letter). If the irs determination letter is dated prior to this five year period, the institution is required to provide documentation from an authorized SIGNING OFFICIAL IN THEIR GRANTS AND CONTRACTS OFFICE OR OFFICE OF SPONSORED RESEARCH to confirm there has not been a status change for the organization. For the Part the Cloud Translational Research Grant Program, any for-profit applicant is required to submit the Organization's financial statements. Prior to award confirmation, the Medical and Scientific Relations Division verifies that each awardee is compliant with the U.S. Patriot Act and does not appear on the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) lists. A FORM IS COMPLETED FOR EACH APPROVED ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION AWARDEE THAT VERIFIES COMPLIANCE WITH THE U.S. Patriot Act AND UPLOADED TO THEIR ONLINE FILE AT PROPOSAL CENTRAL PRIOR TO PAYMENT BEING SENT TO THE AWARDEE. IN THE EVENT THAT A POSITIVE MATCH TO ONE OF THE SDN LISTS IS FOUND BY THE ASSOCIATION, IT WOULD BE IMMEDIATELY REPORTED TO THE ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION LEGAL DEPARTMENT FOR APPROPRIATE HANDLING AND FOLLOW-UP. For transactions unrelated to the International Research Grant Program in the Medical and Scientific Department, the same verification is performed. The Alzheimer's Association monitors the scientific advances of the Association's grant awardees by maintaining records of publications, presentations, and intellectual property that result from funded studies. The Association requires the grant recipient to notify the Alzheimer's Association on an annual basis with updates to these records. Follow-on funding from federal agencies is also monitored. The Alzheimer's Association granted funds to Alzheimer's Impact Movement (AIM) for public policy division activities in fiscal year 2016 to support priorities identified in the Alzheimer's Association's strategic plan. This grant is restricted to the following 501(c)3 activities and the ancillary activities necessary to accomplish specific goals including: Implementation of the National Alzheimer's Project Act (Recognizing this growing Alzheimer's crisis, Congress unanimously passed and the President signed into law the National Alzheimer's Project Act - NAPA); increasing the commitment to Alzheimer's research; expanding education efforts and caregiver support services; expanding diagnosis and planning. * These are names that are trademarks to Alzheimer's Association

Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS At times a board member with early on-set Alzheimer's disease may require a companion to accompany him or her on business travel for safety reasons.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a & 15b PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION Compensation is established for the CEO by the Compensation Committee and the Executive Committee after a thorough salary/market review conducted by outside compensation consultants. For the CEO position, the gathering of relevant comparability data from independent sources occurred in 2015. The process was conducted in a manner intended to qualify for the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness under the Intermediate Sanctions Rules. As to the members of the senior management team other than the CEO, annually updated market data is also provided by the outside compensation consultant, so that the updated market data can be used in setting reasonable compensation for each member of the senior management team. Each year the Compensation Committee evaluates the CEO's performance through a robust assessment process which includes 360 feedback collection, interviews and performance evaluation comparing results to goals. The Committee and Chair of the Board use this data to determine incentive compensation eligibility. The senior staff has a comprehensive performance evaluation and compensation review done at the end of each fiscal year. These include a self-assessment, 360 review and evaluation by the CEO. Updated market data for use in setting reasonable compensation is provided by a national compensation consulting firm to the Compensation Committee for confirmation of reasonableness using a process designed to qualify for the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness (including contemporaneous documentation in the Committee's minutes). For fiscal year 2016, the salary and total compensation package of the CEO was benchmarked by SULLIVAN COTTER. Compensation is contemporaneously documented in the Compensation Committee minutes.
