What We Do
Our Mission
You may not know where to begin. Touched By ALS can help you make sense of it all. We can give sensible advice because we have traveled in your shoes.
The support of family and friends plays a crucial role in the quality of life of pALS. Spouses, partners, parents, even children find themselves providing care or a helping hand to their loved one with ALS. Living with and supporting a person with ALS is an emotionally complex experience, as well as a life altering journey. Touched By ALS can play a role in setting you on the right path by offering sensible advice, the right resources, and perhaps assistance with some of the costs of living with ALS.
Upon initial diagnosis, the family is faced with an emotional bomb and a multitude of questions and unmet needs. We have assembled tips, resources and advice that will equip you with some knowledge, comfort and confidence to put you on the right path.
