Founded in 1946, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating a world free of MS. The Society funds research, drives advocacy, and provides programs to support people living with the disease. It engages over 8.6 million people annually across its activities.
Operating within the healthcare, non-profit, and medical research sectors, the organization describes itself as a movement rather than a traditional institution. Its culture is guided by core values: One Mission, One Team, All In, with an emphasis on collaboration, inclusion, and the relentless pursuit of its mission.
The Society embeds inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility throughout its operations. Staff engage with volunteers through communications, facilitating meaningful opportunities, and fostering reciprocal growth and learning.
