At the National MS Society, we relentlessly advocate for federal, state, and local government change essential to people with MS.
We must work together to break down barriers to care, improve access to quality health services, and make MS therapies more affordable. We must fight for disability rights, MS research funding, and long-term care resources.
We are activists. We make MS issues national priority issues. We share our personal stories. And we ask our public officials for change that benefits people living with MS and others with disabilities and chronic illnesses.

ABOUT US
The National MS Society and individuals nationwide relentlessly advocate every day for community, state, and federal issues that impact the lives of people with MS. Our MS activists are the voices of change for the approximately 400,000 people living with MS nationwide and over 8,000 individuals (34,000 families) impacted in the state of Arizona.
The Arizona Chapter advocacy efforts are managed by a group of leaders who volunteer as members of the Government Relations Committee (GRC) and work closely with Chapter staff to engage, train, & mobilize local MS activists. This committee also works to identify priority legislative issues and lead the way in maintaining a powerful presence at the Arizona Legislature & in the community.
