    JUMPSTART®


    The Start of What is Possible

    Our one-day JUMPSTART Program is an interactive educational program in which you and your support partner gain the knowledge, skills and tools to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors and actively co-manage your MS.

    Offered at no charge in communities across the country, our JUMPSTART Program provides participants with an interactive exploration of health, wellness and lifestyle empowerment approaches and topics.  The topics range from cognitive and fatigue issues, to goal setting, nutrition, exercise, emotional well-being and includes programming specifically for support partners and their concerns.

    JUMPSTART Programs are provided in collaboration with the community’s local National MS Society chapter and/or other local MS-related organizations.
