What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Flex Grant Program
The Flex Grant Program offers financial support through reimbursements to help cover the costs of respite care, adaptive devices not covered by medical insurance, certain medical expenses and equipment, as well as home modifications.
Eligible applicants include all residents of Connecticut, Massachsetts, and Rhode Island who are homebound and have a definitive diagnosis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Grants will be awarded biannually and based, in part, on the availability of funds. First time applicants, as well as those exhibiting dire and/or debilitating personal, psychological, familial, medical, or financial circumstances may be given priority.
