Bike MS Greater NW Chapter - National MS Society's photostream

Our mission is to mobilize people and resources to drive research for a cure and to address the challenges of everyone affected by MS.

The National MS Society, Greater Northwest Chapter educates, inspires and empowers those affected by multiple sclerosis. We break down barriers – both physical and emotional – in the home, in the workplace and in the community. We build confidence that people with MS can live the best possible lives as individuals, as family members, as employees and as members of the larger community. No other local MS organization provides the breadth and depth of services or involves more people in the movement to bring about a world free of MS.

The Greater Washington Chapter and the Alaska Division of the All America Chapter came together as one chapter in January 2010. The Montana Division joined the Chapter in October 2010. Headquartered in Seattle, the chapter serves over 12,000 people living with MS and more than 72,000 others including friends, caregivers and health care professionals throughout Alaska, Montana and in 23 counties in Western and Central Washington.
