Important Update: For the safety of the ALS community, we will be conducing most support groups virtually. You can see a full schedule and register for upcoming Connection Groups, Caregiver Groups, Presentations and Workshops here.
One of the best ways to cope with the emotional struggles of ALS is to connect with others who understand what you’re going through. To help facilitate these communities, we host many types of support groups throughout Texas: ALS Connection Groups (for everyone affected by ALS), Caregiver Groups, Youth and Children Groups, and Specialty Groups for Veterans and Bereavement.
If you’re interested in starting a support group in your area, please contact us and we’ll do our best to make it happen!
