Welcome! I AM ALS is committed to honoring caregivers year-round by amplifying their stories, providing valuable resources, and building a community of supportive peers. We’re recognizing caregivers across the neurodegenerative disease community, including those with ALS, FTD, Huntington’s, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s. We invite you to explore this page’s stories, resources, action items, and donate to support the mission of I AM ALS. When you give, you fund our critical work to support, educate, and uplift caregivers.
