One of the newest ways for ALS patients to receive care locally is at USA Health’s Kelly Butler ALS Center, which offers comprehensive individualized treatment in a single, convenient location at the USA Health Strada Patient Care Center in Mobile. 

Several participants who lost family members or were navigating a new diagnosis walked in honor or memory of their loved ones during the annual event.
