This fall, thousands across the state will come together to Walk UNITED for a Cure at the Walk ALS Wilmington, Walk ALS Greensboro and Walk ALS Charlotte. Walk ALS creates a collective hope for a future without ALS. Each Walk is a day of hope when the community comes together to show people and families affected by ALS that they are not alone. Your participation, commitment, and fundraising efforts are key to ensuring that the North Carolina ALS community continues to receive the highest quality of care.  Register as an individual or start a team today!

Join a Support Group

Support groups are a great place for people living with ALS and their loved ones to share their personal experiences and learn more about strategies for preserving independence and maximizing quality of life.
