If You Are From The Media

Welcome to the ALS Society of Canada on-line media resources.

Here you will find the latest and most comprehensive information about ALS, sometimes called Lou Gehrig's Disease.

This section of our site is devoted to serving the needs of media professionals who need accurate information about ALS and its affects on individuals, families, communities and our country.

Our purpose is to assist media professionals in educating the public about this devastating disease, and what can be done to help find the cause and cure for ALS.

We encourage you to use the material to help support your story about ALS – about the individuals who live with this disease or the issues connected with ALS.
