Discover. Connect. Empower.

Registration for MS Education Day is now closed. We appreciate your interest! For more information about our program or future events, please reach out to Angela Quiroz-Saenz at quirozsaenz@uthscsa.edu.

This free event is designed for individuals living with multiple sclerosis and their support networks. Learn from leading MS specialists as they share practical tools for managing symptoms, maintaining emotional and cognitive health, and navigating the latest treatment options and clinical trials.

In addition to expert-led talks, attendees can participate in hands-on breakout sessions like yoga, mindfulness art, and nutrition, and enjoy a relaxed social hour with games and a panel Q&A.  If you plan to participate in a yoga session, please bring a yoga mat with you. 

Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been living with MS for years, MS Education Day is a chance to learn, connect with others, and feel supported—every step of the way.
