We are devoted to ending the devastating effects of multiple sclerosis. For more than 60 years the National MS Society, with its nationwide network of chapters and branches, has moved to create a world free of MS and improve the quality of life for those affected by MS. Through the work of chapters, the society funds research, provides services, furthers education and promotes public policy development on behalf of 400,000 Americans living with MS. Since its founding the society has invested more than $721 million to find the cause, treatments and a cure for multiple sclerosis.
