In response to concerns that the California facility was too small and vulnerable to earthquake risk, the organization purchased a building in Scottsdale, Arizona in 1993 and moved its patients to it in 1994. Alcor currently has around 1,000 members and 117 patients.https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamesarrowood1https://www.alcor.orgTime Stamp
