Disaster Resources for People with ALS

August 28, 2017 by Tanner Hockensmith 4 Comments

As the devastating effects of Hurricane Harvey continue to unfold, the ALS Association of Texas is working diligently to assess the well-being and needs of ALS patients and their families in the affected areas. This is our first priority – to ensure that our patients are safe and secure and that they can continue to focus on their health with as little disruption as possible.

This unprecedented disaster is likely to have a prolonged impact on those living with ALS and their families. And while the full impact can’t be known just yet, we are providing emergency financial assistance to those forced to evacuate their homes for safer accommodations. And we’ll continue to address these unique needs as they arise. If you or your family are in need of financial assistance, please contact us at info@alstexas.org.

Below is a list of resources for people with ALS and their families who are affected by Hurricane Harvey. Please contact us with any additional questions you may have.
