Join us on Thursday, February 9th for an inspirational evening dedicated to raising awareness and defeating ALS at the Changing the Game gala. Lou Gehrig, the iron horse of baseball, showed extraordinary commitment to the game for many years. Even in the face of the devastating diagnosis of ALS, his spirit of courage remains an inspiration to this day. Changing the Game forever secures the Spirit of Lou Gehrig Award Honorees as champions of ALS who, like Lou Gehrig, "Changed the Game."

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:
