Talk MS Program
The Chapter sponsors a network of community Talk MS groups facilitated by volunteers with MS for people with MS. The groups provide an opportunity to share information, discuss common concerns, and have fun in a relaxed social setting! Members of Talk MS groups share a belief that positive change happens through individual efforts with the support of others.

Training:
Chapter provides orientation, annual training, and on-going support and supervision to Talk MS volunteer group leaders. A mutually convenient schedule of phone calls, mailings, and/or in-person meetings will be scheduled to provide leaders with the tools and support you need to manage your group. In addition, Talk MS group leaders receive a copy of the NMSS Self-Help Group Leader Manual.
For new volunteer group leaders, orientations are held the 2nd Thursday of every month at the St. Louis office at noon and 6pm.
