FOR YOURSELF
We all face challenges as caregivers, but there’s little evidence-supported information about how best to make our lives easier.
iConquerMS Caregivers is leading the field in research to better understand the needs, challenges, and best ways to support caregivers. By participating, you can contribute your knowledge, experience, and questions and learn from others just like you. And you can learn from the latest findings on caregiver well-being.
JoinFOR YOUR LOVED ONE
When you take care of yourself, you have more to give. More energy, more attention, more patience.
In addition, as someone who is a caregiver, you have had the opportunity to observe effects of the disease MS on your loved one and can report changes in symptoms or challenges, sometimes even more accurately than they can. Adding your insight to the base of MS research knowledge may improve daily life for all of you!
JoinFOR THE MS COMMUNITY
There is still much to learn about MS, from its underlying cause to how it affects different populations.
The more people that add to the well of knowledge, the deeper and more accurate our understanding of MS will be. By joining iConquerMS Caregivers, you can add valuable information to that well and contribute your ideas to guide priorities.
