MCS America Members Support
This group also fulfills the function of discuss support, ideas, information, announcements, and/or share personal activism like the MCSA-Pubic group, only with a closed membership that requires a membership application.  This group also has the added benefit of being a place where individuals and other organizations and activists can engage in collaborative efforts with MCS America and being recipient to all the news feeds (see MCSA Feeds below).  Members of this group are considered associate members of MCS America.  Members do not operate MCS America in any way, but rather collaborate with the organization and are privy to some internal operations, activities, and events.
