RealTalk MS Episode 21: MS Advocacy: What It Is & Why It's So Important

from RealTalk MS · host Jon Strum

Decisions made by our legislators can have a direct impact on our healthcare, our financial well-being, and our overall quality of life. That's why next week, 300 MS Activists will be in Washington D.C. to hold more than 400 conversations with our elected officials about the legislative issues that are likely to have the greatest impact on people living with MS. My guest on this week's podcast is Bari Talente, Executive Vice President of Advocacy for the National MS Society. This week's entire podcast is devoted to talking about MS advocacy and the importance of being an #MSActivist. We have a lot to talk about! So are you ready for RealTalk MS?
