For thousands of people, multiple sclerosis is a chronic disease of the central nervous system, affecting the brain and the spinal cord. It typically strikes in the prime of life and it changes life forever. There are approximately 20,000 people in Illinois who suffer from this disease, and they continue to need your help in providing various programs and services, as well as research.
