Welcome to the Mid-Atlantic Chapter Programs and Services
People with multiple sclerosis understand something about moving that others don't -- that moving is not a guarantee. Through programs and services, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society addresses the challenges of each person whose life is affected by MS.
Serving western North Carolina and the state of South Carolina, The Mid-Atlantic Chapter is dedicated to achieving a world free of MS. We help each person address the challenges of living with MS. As a part of a 50 state network, we fund more MS research, Provide more services to people with MS, offer more professional education and further more advocacy efforts than any other MS organization in the world.
For more information about upcoming programs see our programs calendar or contact the chapter at 1-800-FIGHT-MS (344-4867).
