Why we walk

Integrated Against ALS

Breathing support is part of daily life for many people living with ALS — and helping people breathe easier at home is what our respiratory team does every day. That's why we're proud to walk alongside the Les Turner ALS Foundation community at Soldier Field.

"This cause means a lot to us. Together, we can create a world free of ALS."

— Team Integrated

  • Help: Multidisciplinary care that improves quality of life for people with ALS and their families.

  • Hope: A community that stands together — honoring loved ones and supporting those living with ALS today.

  • Life: Research and clinical trials at Northwestern Medicine working toward better treatments and a cure.
