ALSA Golden West Chapter

The ALS Association Golden West Chapter is dedicated to the fight against ALS in many ways, including funding global research efforts, supporting scientific and clinical collaboration, connecting people with ALS to clinical trials, partnering with multidisciplinary ALS clinics and centers, educating the public about ALS, providing professional care management services to families facing ALS, pursuing important public policy initiatives, and bringing the ALS community together.

The Golden West Chapter’s compassionate Care Services team provides expert advice and assistance for people living with ALS, free of charge. Our knowledgeable and dedicated Regional Care Managers help individuals and families access the best information, resources, equipment, and experts to maintain and maximize health, independence, communication, mobility, safety, and quality of life. Support groups throughout our service area provide practical solutions for everyday challenges and a connection with others living with ALS. Medical professionals associated with more than 22 multidisciplinary ALS specialty clinics supported by the Chapter facilitate clinical trials and ALS studies. This proven model of robust, proactive, multidisciplinary care helps people live longer and better with ALS while also advancing the search for treatments and a cure.
