National MS Society announces Alabama and Mississippi Merger
MS Society Announces new Alabama-Mississippi Chapter Merger
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society is excited to announce the merger of the Alabama Chapter and the Mississippi office, which was formerly part of the All America Chapter. The new Chapter is aptly named the Alabama-Mississippi Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and will serve the entire state of Alabama plus the state of Mississippi, with the exception of four northern Mississippi counties near Memphis, TN which will continue to be supported by the Tennessee-based Mid-South Office.
The Alabama-Mississippi Chapter merger strengthens the MS Society’s ability to serve people living with multiple sclerosis in both Alabama and Mississippi. Clients who have questions about programs, services or other aspects of the merger are encouraged to contact the National Multiple Sclerosis Society at 1-800-344-4867.
The Alabama-Mississippi Chapter will retain staffed offices in both states as follows:
