Mid-Atlantic Chapter
Financial Assistance Program
Multiple Sclerosis creates a range of challenges that can result in short-term financial crises, difficulty obtaining critical equipment and home or auto modifications, and diminished capacity to pay for MS-generated needs. The National MS Society, Mid-Atlantic Chapter's Financial Assistance Program offers guidance, leverage and resources to help contain the financial impact of MS.
How Does The Financial Assistance Program Work?
This nationwide program is comprised of a range of initiatives that support independence, safety, health and quality of life for people living with MS, as well as their families. Program initiatives address areas of special importance to the MS community and leverage knowledge and resources that can have a significant, lasting impact. In the past, the program has provided support for needed modifications to homes and automobiles, helped with the purchase of wheelchairs and walkers, and provided immediate resources to overcome urgent financial crises. The assistance available varies depending on local resources.
What Are The Program Goals?
The Society's Financial Assistance Program was developed to bring meaningful financial assistance to as many people living with MS as possible, with emphasis on helping people maintain their independence, safety, health and quality of life.
