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!

Looks like Feb 2nd works for most people - let's do it then!

JLo does 7pm on Feb 2nd work for you for hosting?

The day changes quickly sorry I may not be able to make jan 31 I have recently (yesterday) been committed to that night but I will try. Feb 2 worked better for me. Don't change on my account it's not fair to the rest of the group if the majority can make jan 31.

Thanks, you are most kind.

To each their own Elenore! Just glad to have you with us! And hey, you can walk with your wig on. The idea is to create comfort, which is an individual concept. : )

Dang, Jan 31 does not work for me, but Feb 2 does. But do what the majority wants. I live very close, just on the English Bay side of Burrard bridge. A Monday also works for me. Whatever!!
As for the beach walk, not a hope could I do that. Even my husband doesn't see me without my hair on. Now that should make for a group discussion!
