This bill mandates the appointment of a State Dementia Services Coordinator by the Commissioner of Human Services, who must be qualified by training and experience. The coordinator's responsibilities include developing a master plan to address the impact of Alzheimer's disease and related disorders, coordinating with existing state programs and agencies, facilitating communication and collaboration among service providers, identifying service gaps, and increasing awareness and access to quality care for individuals with dementia. The coordinator is also authorized to request data and assistance from state departments and may consult with experts in the field.

Additionally, the bill requires full cooperation from state departments, offices, divisions, and agencies to support the coordinator's duties. To fund these initiatives, the bill appropriates $150,000 from the General Fund to the Department of Human Services. The act will take effect 90 days after enactment, although the Commissioner may take anticipatory administrative actions as necessary for implementation.
