Resource & Support Groups

The Greater Philadelphia Chapter hosts Support Groups throughout our service region to provide an opportunity for those living with ALS, caregivers, families and friends to be mutually supportive, exchange practical information, and share their experiences. We also provide support groups specifically for caregiver and bereavement support. All groups are free of charge.

For questions about a specific group, please contact the facilitator of that group. For general questions about our support groups, please contact Steve Spaulding at steve@alsphiladelphia.org or 215-664-4131 (call or text).
