When it comes to living well with MS, accessible, affordable housing can be critical to maintaining independence and remaining involved in the community. Whether seeking to renegotiate a mortgage, arrange home modifications, apply for rental vouchers, or explore affordable assisted living, navigating the maze of agencies and funding sources supporting these services can be daunting.

The National MS Society’s Affordable Accessible Housing: A Guide for People with MS helps evaluate housing needs to better understand the range of housing options available to people living with MS.

To learn more about housing resources in your area, we encourage you to connect with our MS Navigators who are available Monday – Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. MT to assist with your housing needs. To connect, call 1-800-344-4867, chat or contact us online
