We were founded in 2007 by the friends and family of Joe Martin who lived with ALS for 12 years. Our organization is the realization of his vision to provide people with ALS (PALS) a resource for support and care to live actively with ALS.<br>We believe that with the help of family and a caring community people with ALS can live with purpose, with joy, and with hope. This philosophy drives us to empower families with the knowledge and tools to navigate this progressive disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our services include showering, dressing, range of motion and exercise, wheelchair accessible transportation, and caregiver training. Our staff has over 20 years\u2019 experience in caring for people with ALS (PALS), and we also serve as a resource to answer caregiving questions. ALS overwhelms families financially and emotionally, however a strong support net can help PALS and their families obtain the best caregiving techniques, equipment, and bolster their will to fight this disease.
