Associazione nazionale MCS

Associazione Nazionale Riconoscimento MCS is an Italian volunteer organisation dedicated to Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) and other environmental illnesses. Based in Pesaro, it works to promote recognition of MCS in Italy, where the condition remains uncertain in medical and regulatory terms and is not identified as a recognised illness with a dedicated health classification code. The association highlights the difficulties this creates for people with MCS, including barriers to accessing appropriate care and risks in medical settings that may lack suitable environments or specialist expertise.

Through its website, the organisation shares information about MCS, its activities and developments affecting the community. Its resources include a health-focused journal, news, an “Help Health” section and a dedicated area for medical professionals. The association also invites people to learn how to participate or support its work, including through Italy’s five-per-thousand tax donation scheme. Individuals seeking information about membership, involvement or the organisation’s work can contact the association directly by email.
