Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Foundation

The ALS Massachusetts Chapter's mission is to lead the fight to cure and treat ALS through global, cutting-edge research, and to empower people with Lou Gehrig's disease and their families to live fuller lives by providing them with compassionate care and support. They offer more than a dozen free services for patients and their families, including a respite care program, an equipment loan program, a transportation program and support groups. They, along with our sister Chapters from across the country, also contribute significantly to research efforts both nationally and internationally, making The ALS Association the largest private source of funding for ALS research anywhere in the world.
