Welcome to the National MS Society’s Pennsylvania Collaborative Action Network (PA CAN) blog page! Focused on issues important to people living with MS in Pennsylvania, we set up a blog to share news and provide advocacy information.
We are the Pennsylvania Collaborative Action Network (PA CAN), a collaboration of people who want to do something about Multiple Sclerosis now. Led by the three Pennsylvania chapters of the National MS Society (Western Pennsylvania, Central Pennsylvania and Greater Delaware Valley), the PA CAN represents more than 25,000 people living with MS throughout the state. Since MS is a disease that affects the entire family, however, we estimate the representation of the PA CAN to be closer to 57,000 Pennsylvanians.
In the course of this blog, we will be providing information about important issues facing individuals with MS like:
Health Care
Disability Rights
Long Term Care Services
Respite Services
Adult Protective Services
Research
We will be sharing information about advocacy work and ways you can raise awareness. For those interested, there will be opportunities to guest blog about important MS issues.
For more information, check out our activist website.
If you are interested in guest blogging, or would like to get involved, send us a message or contact Jennifer Strayer of the PA CAN at: (717) 586-8505 or Jennifer.Strayer@nmss.org
