ALS Association Greater Philadelphia Chapter staff nurse Gail Houseman started the Chapter's Visiting Volunteer program 15 years ago. Since then, over 100 volunteers have participated in the program to provide help and companionship to people with ALS in the Chapter's area. Kelly Slipakoff was the very first VV and she continues to be involved in the program to this day. In this podcast, Gail and Kelly talk about the program, what they've learned, and how to be good friends to those living with the disease and their families.
