National Multiple Sclerosis Society (Pacific South Coast Chapter)
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society Pacific South Coast Chapter is a nonprofit, 501(c)3 charitable organization serving Orange County, San Diego and Imperial Counties. Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling disease of the central nervous system. Symptoms may be mild such as numbness in the limbs or severe -- paralysis or loss of vision. Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40 but the unpredictable physical and emotional effects can be lifelong. The progress, severity and specific symptoms of MS in any one person cannot yet be predicted, but advances in research and treatment are giving hope to those affected by the disease. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society is dedicated to ending the devastating effects of multiple sclerosis.
