An electronic copy of the 2012 conference registration brochure is available on the site and can be found here. The brochure includes a detailed schedule of events for this year’s conference, which takes place in Washington, DC May 13-15. Hotel information and details on registration fees, including Sunday only fees, early bird registration deadlines and how to reserve an ADA accessible hotel room, also can be found in the brochure. Please note that in order to request an ADA accessible hotel room, attendees must contact Mary Wisniewski, event planner for the conference, at adaroom@alsa-national.org or by phone at 202-746-0043. ADA room reservations open at 11am EST on Monday, February 6. As always, The ALS Association waives conference registration fees for all people with ALS and a caregiver traveling with them to Washington, DC. The Advocacy Conference has played a major role in advancing the fight for a treatment and cure, including helping to secure $650 million in government funding for ALS research and vital Medicare benefits and benefits for military veterans and their survivors. Equally important, the conference empowers people with ALS and their families with the ability to fight back in the war against ALS. Click here to learn more about this year’s exciting conference. We hope you will join us this May as we continue to create the roadmap that will lead to a treatment and cure for ALS.
