The ALS Association's 'ALS Across America' Focuses on Staying Positive and Involved

For the second consecutive year during ALS Awareness Month, The ALS Association’s “ALS Across America” campaign is recognizing people throughout the United States living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis for their courageous battle with Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

The campaign, which was launched in mid April, shines the spotlight on men and women from all walks of life who despite having the progressive, neurodegenerative disease  which on average has a survival rate of two to five years from the time of diagnosis  think of and help others in similar circumstances before themselves.

The profiles of 30 of these courageous people, including their caregivers, have been shared with the media throughout the country and will be featured on The ALS Association Web site beginning May 1.
