ALS is here. But so are we.

Every May, I AM ALS and our community recognizes ALS Awareness Month. This is a time to shine a light on the realities of ALS and to uplift the community of people living with ALS, their caregivers, advocates, and loved ones standing shoulder to shoulder as we seek a cure. In 2025, we’re doing more than raising awareness—we’re unveiling critical insights, amplifying community stories, and inspiring nationwide action.

This year’s campaign runs from May 1 through May 31, and we invite you to join us in making it impossible to ignore the truth: ALS is here. But so are we—and we are not stopping until there’s a cure.

Learn more about our ALS Awareness Month campaign, how you can be involved, and be part of the change.

This is urgent. This is your movement.

Share. Volunteer. Speak up.
Because ALS is here—and so are we.
