Mission Statement for ALS Watchdawgs is: 

Our Mission is to fight alongside Mick and other FDNY members with ALS. It is with the same love and courage that it takes to fight a fire together, that ALS Watchdawgs come together to face and bring joy during life’s biggest challenges.

Firefighters are 2X more likely to suffer from ALS. We aim to change legislation and policy, from the local department to a national conversation about protecting our first responders. This ensures helping them when they need assistance, but also to make sure that the medical system can recognize that this affliction is job related, so that first responders and their families are protected for life.
