ALS United Mid-Atlantic Advocates Make an Impact
This May, ALS United Mid-Atlantic advocates shared their personal stories to advance important needs for the ALS community. Our advocates connected with members of Congress to protect funding for ALS research and took action in the state capitols in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey to promote full funding for ALS care services and fair access to home care.
