Adaptive Social Media Influences to Follow

Inspiring Social Media Accounts to Follow for People with Disabilities and Wheelchair Users
August 10, 2020 | Categories: Disabled Youth , Life In A Wheelchair , Spinal Cord Injuries ,

Social media can be a minefield to navigate sometimes, and with everyone having a little more time on their hands to scroll through feeds, it’s important to include relatable, positive, and informative accounts to your follows. National Ramp is continuing to offer account recommendations that may be of interest to members of the disabled community. These accounts include individuals with disabilities and organizations that provide support and research for specific diseases. Each of these profiles will be featured on our social media accounts in our “Follow Friday” project. Be sure to follow us @NationalRamp across platforms!

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease where the body’s immune system has an abnormal response directed at the central nervous system. Many patients, especially those with a degenerative version of MS, will use mobility aids and devices to counter some of the symptoms of the disease, or if they lose their ability to walk entirely. The MS Society offers support, fundraising, and research towards their goal of a world without MS.
Follow them on social media to hear the stories of MS patients, see how you can become involved in their fundraising events, and find out what’s new in the treatment and research for MS.
