MISSION / PURPOSE FOR FOUNDATION

What is Multiple Sclerosis?

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an unpredictable disease of the central nervous system, that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Victor Rivera Foundation is to provide under-resourced people living with MS access to neurologic and neuro-eye services.

How and Who We Help

• Under-resourced people living with MS and other similar demyelinating diseases with access to neurologic and eye services. This includes individuals who are under insured, may have a high deductible or lack health care benefits.
• Ensure patients with MS and other demyelinating diseases receive current and proven neuro-eye medical protocols.
• Focus on Spanish-speaking patients while mentoring Spanish speaking healthcare professionals.

More information on MS symptoms, treatments, resources, support and more is available on the National MS Society’s website.
