Multiple Sclerosis Support Group offers an empathic and nurturing community to connect people with similar experiences. By providing a forum for emotional support, social companionship and a shared bond, we hope that those with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) will strengthen their emotional wellbeing, learn coping strategies for managing their condition, and not feel alone in their daily struggles. Discussions will include the impacts of MS, tips on managing symptoms, treatment options, and self-care topics such as nutrition, mental health, and lifestyle choices.

Multiple Sclerosis Support Group welcomes individuals living with MS as well as friends and family supporting them.

Multiple Sclerosis Support Group is a monthly open group and regular participation is not required. Participants may join at any time and "drop in" as needed.

This group is facilitated by Mammoth Hospital Family Medicine physician Dr. Peter Clark and is intended to foster an empathic and supportive environment to aid in your journey. Individuals may participate as much as they are comfortable or just be present if that suits them.

Group sessions typically include: 

• Welcome & introductions (5 minutes)

• Group guidelines & grounding (5-10 minutes)

• Education/guest speaker/themed topic (15-20 minutes)

• Group discussion & sharing (20-30 minutes)

• Resource sharing & announcements (5 minutes)

• Closing ritual & wrap-up

Multiple Sclerosis Support Group is offered monthly, typically on the 1st Tuesday of the month from 12:00PM-1:00PM.

Multiple Sclerosis Support Group is held in our Mammoth location (121 College Pkwy, Mammoth Lakes, CA) in the 2nd floor study of the South Gateway Apartments.

The group facilitator may greet you in the lobby and escort you upstairs or you can follow signage to the upstairs study.

Multiple Sclerosis Support Group is a free support group.
