in my mobility scooter, just gawking and gawking... That was 30 years ago! But this morning I could see him clear as day, like it was yesterday.

The Walks and other events are empowering and a great way to find community, resources & support. I've met some of my best friends at MS Society events.

Fill out this survey to help shape the MS Society's new employment-supports program. What do you need as a person with MS? Surveys due 5/22/26.

Because MS is often diagnosed during prime working years, this work is designed to better understand how MS affects employment, financial stability, and career progression for individuals under age 45. Insights gathered through the survey will directly inform future programming grounded in lived experience and aligned with the Society’s mission.
