About
The American Lung Association of Mississippi was founded in 1914 to provide services and programs for better lung health for all Mississippians. Originally organized as the Mississippi Tuberculosis Association, dealing strictly with tuberculosis treatment, education and patient services, the association has taken an expanded role to encompass all lung, pulmonary, respiratory diseases and conditions.
The mission of the ALAM is to prevent lung disease and promote lung health through direct assistance, education programs, advocacy and research.
