JUMPSTART® Program

Get started with new ideas for a healthier life.

About the program

Join us every month to meet with and learn from the MS community.

During each two-hour program, we’ll focus on a specific symptom, challenge, or strategy for life with MS. Learn from our Can Do Coaches then discuss and share ideas with your peers during breakout sessions.

These virtual, workshop-style programs can help you find connection and motivation in a positive environment. JUMPSTART is offered at no cost to you and is easily accessed via Zoom.
