ALS Association of Tennessee

The ALS Association Tennessee Chapter was created in 2005 through a merger of the Central Tennessee Chapter with the Mid-South Chapter-in-Organization (Memphis) and the Tri-Cities Support Group. The Tennessee Chapter provides services to those living with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and their caregivers and serves patients in Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and Virginia. The ALS Association is the only national not-for-profit health organization dedicated solely to the fight against ALS. The ALS Association covers all the bases: research, patient and community services, public education, and advocacy in providing help and hope to those facing the disease. The ALS Association (National Office and the Tennessee Chapter) operates under a shared mission: to help people living with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and to leave no stone unturned in search for the cure. We work together to accomplish our mission.

The Tennessee Chapter focuses primarily on helping local patients and families live with ALS while the National Office focuses primarily on research and advocacy. The Chapter supports the National Office through revenue sharing and research contributions. The National Office supports the Chapters by providing up-to-date information and materials. Our accomplishments are made possible by the generosity of others. From the smallest donation to the largest gift, donors touch the ALS community with hope for the future.
