Mobility and homecare are two critical areas of ALS care important to both those living with ALS and caregivers alike. Join us this September at our Mobility and Healthcare Fall Symposium as we address questions such as:
- What type of care do I or my loved one need?
- Is my insurance able to cover the cost of my homecare?
- When do I need mobility aides and what type of mobility aide do I need?
We are excited to feature the following special guest speakers:
Camp HLC is typically a three-day, overnight retreat for children and young adults, ages 6-21, who have or have had a loved one battling ALS. Families are invited as well. It is an opportunity to have fun, be challenged through team building exercises, and meet peers who are going through a similar experience.
Camp HLC is provided free for our ALS families by Hope Loves Company and our sponsors. All meals and activities are included.
