             Circle 
            of Care is a group of caring people organized to help people with 
            ALS and their caregivers. 
              
            
            Tasks that families need help with may include, walking the dog, 
            cooking a meal, providing companionship or transportation and other 
            daily activities for which the caregiver is responsible. 
            
            One person is trained as the coordinator and organizes the “Circle 
            of Care” group.  The coordinator is usually close to, but not a 
            member of, the immediate family. 
            
            The National Office and the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of The ALS 
            Association will provide a three hour training class needed to 
            become a Circle of Care coordinator. 
            
            Circle of Care Coordinator Training Classes will be held as follows: 
            
             June 5th in PasadenaJuly 10th in Torrance
 August 7th in Westlake Village
 
            
            The primary purpose of forming a Circle of Care is to reduce 
            caregiver responsibilities and reduce the worry the person with ALS 
            has about their caregiver. 
            By 
            caring for the caregiver, the person with ALS is helped.
