The National Multiple Sclerosis Society offers more services for people with MS, funds more MS research, and provides more professional education programs than any other MS organization in the world. The Colorado Chapter, founded in 1959, is chartered by the Society's National Board of Directors and is governed independently by its own Board of Trustees. We meet our mission "to free the world of MS" through comprehensive local programs and advocacy statewide to assist and empower Coloradans affected by MS and by ensuring that the best and most promising research is funded.
Mission Statement
The Society's mission is:
People affected by MS can live their best lives as we stop MS in its tracks, restore what has been lost and end MS forever.
Since this is a sliding fee scale clinic, we have provided the Federal Poverty Guidelines below. Visit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society website listed above to see what the level is needed for free care.

*Alaska and Hawaii have different rates for HUD federal poverty guidelines.
These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get reduced or free services from some clinics, they use a sliding fee scale based on your income.When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.
