ALS Association Central & Southern Ohio Chapter

The ALS Association is the only national not-for-profit health organization dedicated solely to the fight against ALS, more commonly known as Lou Gherig's disease. 

Leading the fight to treat and cure ALS through global research and nationwide advocacy while also empowering people with Lou Gehrig’s Disease and their families to live fuller lives by providing them with compassionate care and support.

Here at the Central & Southern Ohio Chapter we work to serve the needs of local patients and families living with ALS through case management, support groups, equipment loan, and advocacy and public policy in a 55 county territory.

Our services are free of charge and are made possible through the generosity of donors, local foundations and through our Signature Events, the Walk to Defeat ALS in Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton and Southeast Ohio.
