Life Beyond MS!

The Centers for MS goals are to reduce
isolation, improve mobility, and provide
resources and solutions.
The MS Community Centers operate on the
same day of the week at all six locations.
Each MS Community Center day has a
consistent structure designed to decrease
clients’ isolation and improve their health
and well-being. Services include:
• Mental health counseling
• Social and support group meeting
• Yoga or other MS-focused exercise
• Lunch
• Art class
All MS community center activities and
services are free to registered clients of the
Centers for Multiple Sclerosis.
Through September 2024, the Centers for
MS held 4,375 classes and served 1,211
lunches to our 500+ clients. 85% of our
clients are women, and 50% of our clients
are over the age of 65.
The Centers for MS are not affiliated with,
nor receive funding from, any national
organizations.
91 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to local services.
