The MS Australia National Advocates Program promotes the active involvement of people living with MS and carers of people living with MS in the MS Australia advocacy agenda. The program is focused on outward facing advocacy including engagement in media and public events and with members of parliament and relevant policy/decision makers and special interest groups.
The National Advocates Program has been in operation for some time and with the introduction of the MS Australia Live Experience Expert Panel, MS Australia has taken the opportunity to re-launch the program and expand the membership.
Our updated team of National Advocates encompass a wide range of experience living with MS and each member has their own unique personal journey, which we draw upon in advancing the advocacy work of MS Australia.
