August is ALS Advocacy Action Month, an opportunity for you to join with other advocates in your own home state and push for changes in policies that affect the lives of people with ALS. Throughout this month, advocates will share their personal experience with ALS and urge members of Congress to increase funding of critical research to find new treatments and a cure.
Diane Mummaw's story is one of strength, resilience, and the power of community. In the face of an ALS diagnosis, she found comfort and strength through the support of her peers, family and her own personal calling to help others.
