Support Groups

Support groups are a community of people with a similar diagnosis or challenge who gather to share knowledge and encouragement.

Support groups come in many shapes and sizes. Some are large online communities with many people to answer your questions. Some are facilitated by a mental health professional, a person diagnosed with an illness, the family of someone diagnosed, or a medical expert. They can be held in person, online, or by phone. You may want to check out a few groups and formats to find one that you are comfortable in.

PCF has several private, moderated support groups on Facebook for different interests.
