By MSYPN member Reese Garcia | The Rocky Mountain MS Center and MSYPN are great avenues for raising your voice and sharing your story. Recently through the MSYPN, I had the opportunity to collaborate on a webinar with two other youth professional network members. During the webinar, the three of us had a conversation about unique challenges young adults with MS face. Topics ranged from dating, relationships, lifestyle, and employment.
Not only was it an opportunity to share our personal stories, but we were able to relay our experiences to others who may be facing an MS diagnosis at a young age. One thing I’ve learned by having MS and being part of the MSYPN is that you can never have enough support. Hearing how others manage this disease and thrive is necessary and empowering when dealing with the unpredictability of MS. Click here to see the webinar.
The MSYPN also hosts events to support the mission and programs of the Rocky Mountain MS Center. We are hosting our 14th Annual Drag Queen Bingo event on Friday, February 22nd – click here for tickets to our 5:30 show or 8:30 shows. Make sure you get your tickets soon because the shows do sell out. Join us for a night of bingo, performances, and amazing prizes (gift cards to local restaurants, hotel stays, gym memberships, and more). Grab your friends and have a fun night out while supporting a great cause.
