The ALS Association Florida Chapter offers care to patients living in Florida and funds research to find the cause and cure for ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. We are part of a nationwide network of local ALS Association chapters all working toward the same goal - to one day find a cure. Through care, advocacy, research, education and support we work to empower those with ALS. Every year, we invest millions of dollars in research conducted by the best and brightest scientists in the world. As the only national not-for-profit health organization dedicated solely to fight against ALS, we give HOPE and HELP to those facing this devastating disease.
