On World MS Day, we recognize the millions of people around the world living with multiple sclerosis and the researchers, clinicians, caregivers, and communities working to support them every day. 🧡

At Kessler Foundation, our researchers are advancing the understanding of MS through studies focused on cognition, mobility, fatigue, employment, and quality of life, helping drive progress toward better care and outcomes.

This year's World MS Day theme, ""My MS Diagnosis: Navigating MS Together,"" highlights the importance of support, early diagnosis, and continued research.

Together, we move research forward. This World MS Day, you can help support groundbreaking research and programs that improve the lives of people living with MS and other disabilities.

Kessler Foundation was recently featured in a CNBC article highlighting financial opportunities and challenges for Americans with disabilities in the workforce.

The article references insights from our May 2026 nTIDE Jobs Report, which found that while employment for people with disabilities declined slightly, it remains near historic highs.

We’re proud to contribute research and data that help inform important national conversations around disability employment and economic inclusion.

Last week, Dr. Helen Genova from Kessler Foundation joined the National Down Syndrome Society for a webinar exploring a strength-based approach to future success for neurodiverse learners.

The session highlighted KF-Stride™, Kessler Foundation’s research-backed web-based program designed to help teens and adults identify their strengths, build confidence, and work toward personal goals through topics like employment readiness and wellness.

Rather than focusing on what someone is doing “wrong,” KF-Stride™ helps individuals recognize and build on what they’re already doing right.

What does it mean to find your way back after an MS diagnosis?

For Beth Holcomb, it meant adapting, persevering, and continuing to pursue the activities she loves, on her own terms.

Stories like Beth’s highlight the real-world impact of multiple sclerosis, and the importance of research that supports independence, resilience, and quality of life.

At Kessler Foundation, that’s exactly what we’re working to improve every day.
