Colton City Mayor Richard de la Rosa joined other local, county and state leaders to raise awareness. De la Rosa was among several officials led by Assemblymember Cheryl Brown (D-San Bernardino) who took part recently in the Ice Bucket Challenge, with the goal to raise awareness about Amyotrphic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) disease. ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that renders patients unable to use their voluntary muscles. Those afflicted with ALS, including 300,000 people in the United States, lose their ability to walk, talk, move, and breathe. Assemblymember Brown took the challenge in honor of her husband, Dr. Hardy Brown, who was diagnosed with ALS in 2002. The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is held annually in August until a cure is found.
