About ALS Canada:
ALS Canada is a charitable organization that lives its values of accountability, collaboration, compassion, integrity, dynamism, and respect. We are working to change what it means to live with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, an unrelenting and currently terminal disease. Grounded in and informed by the Canadian ALS community, we respond to the urgent unmet need for life-changing treatments by investing in high-quality research that will fuel scientific discovery and by engaging industry, supporting increased clinical capacity, and advocating for equitable, affordable, and timely access to proven therapies.
In Ontario, we provide direct community services to help people navigate ALS. Founded in 1977, we are a registered charity that receives no government funding – our work is powered by generous donors who share our vision of a future without ALS.
