Enhanced services will provide even more in-depth information.

Chapter Announces New Information and Referral Service  

The Mid-Atlantic Chapter has contracted with the Information Resource Center beginning September 25, 2007, joining 38 other chapters across the country in this enhanced service.  Inquiries regarding information on MS, programs, and local resources will be directed to the IRC, and handled by the trained Information & Referral Specialists.  

“This is an exciting time for the Mid-Atlantic Chapter!” says Anne Marie Forbes, Chapter President.  “The Programs Managers in our office have worked relentlessly to manage I & R calls and coordinate the additional programs and services we offer.  In addition to providing information about MS and community resources, the IRC has specialists on hand to provide in-depth information on insurance, employment, and financial management. 

The IRC will allow the chapter staff added time for growth in local programs delivery, and will assure timely, high quality customer service and accurate information to our clients.”  To contact the Information Resource Center dial 1-800-FIGHT MS (1-800-344-4867), and select option 1, or by email at ncp@nmss.org.
