Summary: The ALS Registry is a powerful tool to learn more about who has ALS in the United States and develop appropriate research proposals with different populations of people. In order for the Registry to work, people with ALS need to participate in a series of surveys. In this podcast, Jen Hjelle, the Executive Director of The ALS Association MN/ND/SD Chapter talks about their outreach to ALS families for the registry in more rural areas of the country and why they see the Registry as a valuable tool to end ALS.
