Candyce Hayes, MSSP Executive Director, said, "We are extending our deadline for the Multiple Sclerosis individuals to apply for a new portable window air conditioner this year due to a low number of applications.  We have switched over to electronic newsleters which we believe may be contributing to the shortage of applications.  To be eligible individuals must have a diagnosis of MS and live in Oregon or SW Washington.  We need to spread the work about this program se we can help as many people as possible.
