About ALS
ALS progressively paralyzes its victims, attacking nerve cells and pathways in the brain or spinal cord, stripping away their ability to walk, talk and eventually breathe. With no known cause or cure, we are rallying statewide support to change that and offering a great experience in return.

About The ALS Association Florida Chapter
Since 1987, The ALS Association Florida Chapter has been “covering all the bases for people living with ALS in Florida.” We provide patient programs, advocate on behalf of patients with our government leaders, create awareness of the disease, and fund research. In addition, the organization provides financial support to our statewide multidisciplinary ALS clinics and research facilities, enabling them to increase patient care. For more information, visit us on our website at www.als.org/florida or on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram @ALSFlorida.
