We host a variety of events around the country to help raise awareness and critical funds for ALS research and care. Help us create a world without ALS by getting involved today in the way that best suits YOU!
ALS Nexus brings together leaders in the ALS community to connect, collaborate, and change the future of ALS. This is more than a conference – it’s an opportunity to spark new ideas and accelerate progress towards our goal of making ALS a livable disease until we can cure it.
Libby Yost, OT faculty, and Amy Yorke, PT faculty, will be available to answer your questions regarding equipment used for individuals with ALS. This session will also offer an opportunity for follow-up questions from caregivers who attended last year's labs. Register for this event by clicking here.

For caregivers of a person with ALS, taking time for self-care is more easily said than done. But putting off self-care can lead to burnout, making it more difficult to care for a loved one with ALS. Do you have days or even weeks where you feel you are simply "Running on Empty"?
