Support Groups provide a
forum to share feelings, concerns, information,
and as well as a place to offer peer support
and encouragement. Solicitations or research
projects are not conducted at support
group meetings.
Support groups often feature speakers specializing
in scleroderma or related topics. To find
out information about upcoming speakers
or meeting topics, please contact the support
group leader or chapter office.
This schedule is subject to change. Before
attending a group for the first time, please
call to verify date and time. Groups are
free of charge and open to everyone.
