Build Your Own Campaign
The Extra Hands Network is about ALS activism. We are ALS families, Extra Hands volunteers, athletes, and ordinary people just like you who work together to fight ALS. We have many important goals:
  • raising public awareness of the disease

  • supporting each other by sharing personal stories and caregiving tips

  • banding together to influence lawmakers on legislation that could affect ALS families

  • raising funding for research, and

  • finding others locally or nationally who share a passion for fighting ALS.
We hope you will join us!



Public Awareness
Raising public awareness of ALS is a critical first step toward defeating it. Find out how Extra Hands for ALS addresses this important issue.



Legislative Advocacy
There is no shortage of bills before Congress and state legislatures that, if signed into law, could affect people with ALS significantly. Here we present summaries of several important issues, and we provide a Congress Calculator to help you find your elected officials.
