Travel Assistance Program

The mission of the Goode Foundation is to support, assist, and empower ALS patients and families, and inspire the pursuit of improved treatment and research toward a cure. Sometimes clinic appointments require an overnight stay for patients who live far away from Atlanta. As ALS progresses, extra time to get the pALS up and dressed, into the car or van for travel, and into the ALS clinic building can turn that appointment into a 12+ hour day that is exhausting for the patient and caregiver.

The Goode Foundation Travel Assistance Program is for those Emory ALS Center patients who live outside the metro Atlanta area who would benefit from an overnight stay prior to a clinic appointment. The Goode Foundation has partnered with the Emory Conference Center Hotel to pay for the overnight stay prior to your appointment at the Emory ALS Clinic.

Please complete this form as soon as your appointment is scheduled to make sure that a handicapped room is available. Send your completed form to goodestrong@gmail.com  

There is a free shuttle from the hotel to the Emory Clinic Building B, however if you have a power wheelchair and handicapped vehicle, it is better for you to drive to the clinic building and use the valet service. Valet service is also available at Emory Brain Health Center.
