Who We Are
ALS United Greater Chicago serves persons living with ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig's disease) and their families. ALS is an always fatal, degenerative neuromuscular disease with a life expectancy of 2 to 5 years. Every 90 minutes someone is diagnosed. Every 90 minutes someone loses their fight. We provide care, advocate for and invest in research for the ALS community.
What We Do

We are proud to currently serve the Chicagoland area, Northern and Central Illinois, and part of Northwest Indiana.
There is no cost to Persons Living with ALS and their families for any of the services we provide.
Our Mission
To unite the ALS community in our collaborative approach to foster bold research initiatives, advance national and state advocacy efforts, and provide comprehensive care and support to individuals and families affected by ALS.
