In the quest to create a world without ALS, our vision is to care for and support all people living with Lou Gehrig’s disease as we leave no stone unturned in our relentless search for a cure.
Description:
By providing information, support groups, equipment loans, handicapped transportation, respite, education, advocacy and support for the Louise Wilcox ALS Clinic and national research initiatives, no one will ever have to face this devastating disease alone.
