Information

Vancouver Alopecia Areata Support Group

Hello Vancouverites! Connecting is one of the best ways to feel happier and become more informed! Come as you are, whether you are shy or outgoing. This is a genuine and fun group where all of us - new to alopecia or experienced, hair-wearer or au natural, seeking treatment or not - all come together and be supportive, informative, and positive for one another. After 4+ years of running this group, I can say for sure that you'll feel better after a meetup! :)

Come to our monthly meetups, or, start by joining this group and be in the loop of upcoming meetups! Sometimes I include alopecia news / remedy / stories too.

If your kid / teen has alopecia, please contact us and we'll put you in touch with other parents! It'll be, I believe, quite awesome for your child :)

Upcoming Meetups

This group gets together monthly at one of the members' homes - a cozy, positive, and fun environment, for those with alopecia. We are here to support one another, and every meetup has been amazingly mood-lifting.

Join us here and we'll send next meeting details to you in a group email!

You can always get a hold of us via AW messaging or at alopecia.vancouver[at]gmail.com

We are affiliated with CANAAF (Canadian Alopecia Areata Foundation).

Next meet up: We meet about once a month. Please email Tanya at the emil address above!

No worries JLo! Everyone, it'll really help if you can please email JLo whether you can do 14th, 15th, or both dates!

Hello!
So...rookie mistake, I got confused with the dates. I meant Saturday the 14th, not the 15th...but I can do the 15th if it works for the majority of people. You can respond here or to alopecia.vancouver@gmail.com. Then I will send out another email informing all.
My apologies!

Hey Chris and all, Looks like it'll be Sept 14th. And yes it is my last group meeting before I leave.. :( I do have a going away party on Oct 10th though! To be confirmed ;)

There will be other opportunities Chris. : ) On that note, if anyone has a particular interest in helping with the development of the CANAAF Kids' Club, please message me. Thanks.

Its a crazy month for me. Jana I have my brother's 50th birthday which I am hosting. Sorry would like to support the kids :)

If you are able to make it to the informal dinner on the 28th - meant to kick start the CANAAF Kids Club - please message me. It would be great to have some adults there to chat with the parents and children. And I need to know numbers so I can reserve the appropriate number of tables. Thanks everyone. : )

I was hoping to be able to make it as I am new to this group, and was looking forward to connecting with this group, but it appears I will have to be out of town. I look forward to the next meeting.

I can't do the 14th as I have a wedding to go to. Is it the 14th or the 15th and is this Tanya's last one before she leaves. Hoping it is the 15th so that I can connect!
