ALS United Mid-Atlantic is dedicated to improving the lives of people living with ALS and their families throughout Delaware, Eastern and Central Pennsylvania, and Central and Southern New Jersey, while also advancing the search for effective treatments and a cure. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, ALS United Mid-Atlantic provides comprehensive care service programs at no cost to families, ensuring that support is available when it is needed most.

These vital care programs include access to multi-disciplinary ALS clinics, resource groups, durable medical equipment, assistive technology, and more. For families navigating the challenges of ALS, these programs are truly a lifeline, offering comfort, guidance, and practical solutions that improve daily life and ease the burden of care.

Beyond care programs, ALS United Mid-Atlantic also provides much-needed hope for the future. Each year, the organization invests in cutting-edge research projects aimed at better understanding ALS and developing new treatments. In recent years, research efforts have focused on supporting local scientists and institutions, strengthening innovation right here in our region. Together, through care, research, and advocacy, ALS United Mid-Atlantic is working toward a world without ALS.
