To prevent lung disease and promote lung health. Founded in 1904, the American Lung Association sets the progressive standard in this country for the promotion of lung health.

The ALANE maintains its commitment to lung disease and remains responsive to the ever-changing needs of today's issues through the development of innovative public education, research, and advocacy programs.
