SCI Awareness Day at the Massachusetts State House: Wednesday, Sept 16, 2026 12-1pm

GSIL is sharing this invitation from our partners at SCIboston and Massachusetts Walks Again to join the spinal cord injury community for SCI Awareness Day on Wednesday, September 16, from 12–1 p.m. at the Massachusetts State House in Boston.

The event will bring together people with spinal cord injuries, families, advocates, and community partners for a complimentary luncheon featuring updates, prevention efforts, and personal stories from the SCI community. Most importantly, it’s an opportunity to make your voice heard.

Connecting directly with legislators and sharing lived experiences can help build greater awareness and support for the resources and policies that promote independence and quality of life.

Registration is required.

80 years ago, a group of wheelchair users rolled into Grand Central Station to gather signatures for accessible housing legislation. That group — which would become Eastern Paralyzed Veterans Association, the predecessor of United Spinal — saw tremendous need and started finding solutions. It’s that same spirit that continues to drive United Spinal 80 years later.

We've created webinars before they were mainstream, trained hundreds of peer mentors, and provided resources to support people through all phases of their recovery journey. United Spinal continues to adapt to meet the needs of our community.

United Spinal Association knows that connection matters. That’s why we offer a wide range of virtual events and support groups each month to help people stay informed, supported, and connected.

Two new groups have just been added:
· Women with MS Connect brings women together to share experiences, build community, and support one another through every stage of living with MS. Meets the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 6:00 PM ET.

· Newly Injured Spinal Cord Injury Support Group (0–3 Years Post-Injury) offers a safe space to connect, ask questions, and find encouragement during the early stages after injury. Meets the 3rd Monday of each month at 6:00 PM ET.
