Vancouver Alopecia Areata Support Group
Information
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 :)
Location: Vancouver
Members: 90

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!

@Tanya...Nothing from Jennifer yet.
@Group Mondays are great for me! March 12 works. I'll do my best to stay well this time. Sad I couldn't make last meeting.I went to a living room session last night. It was a discussion group on Byron Katie's "the work" that she talks about in her books. It was very enlightening and insightful. www.thework.com

Hi Guys!
Unfortunately, I won't be able to make the meeting. I'm in Kamloops for 6 weeks starting from the beginning of March. But I definitely will try and make the next meeting! Best Wishes to all of you. Looking forward to meeting you all in the future! : )

I would suggest that this is a pretty pivotal piece of guidance for new members. I will also post it in the emotions discussion, but suspect that only posted there are notified.
Also, Kayla Martell has a Facebook group called Kayla's Corner for Women and Kids with Hairloss. You have to request permission to join.
