The National Multiple Sclerosis Society has opened an office in South Columbia’s Corporate Lake commercial center.
The St. Louis-based Gateway Area Chapter of the MS Society said in a news release that the office at 4816 Santana Circle, which opened this month, will assist almost 1,000 people living with the disease in central Missouri.
Services will include financial assistance to help with medical costs and allow people with MS to stay in their homes. The center will also provide educational programming to help people stay active and connect socially in a therapeutic setting.
Support for Bike MS, the Gateway Area Chapter’s largest fundraising event, will also be provided by the office. This year’s event will be held Sept. 11-12 at the Boone County Fairgrounds.
