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 :)

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!

Seriously. I sent it over a week ago. I wonder where it is? By the time it gets there, you won't have a rash anymore (which is good).

Cat: Did you get the stuff I sent? Glad to hear it's going away even if you didn't use it.

"There is no such thing as chance; and what seems to us mere accident springs form the deepest source of destiny"
By the way my red spot(Psoriasis) on my arm the one that looks like someone sucked on it too long..lol is fading away:) My legs look like there on there way too.

I went away for the weekend to visit some friends on the island. I was in a coffee shop in Qualicum Beach and a woman approached me. It turned out she has Alopecia Universalis and was meeting another woman with alopecia for the first time in the hopes of starting a support group on the island. It was such a crazy chance meeting. I exchanged numbers and email with the women. I'm still excited about this and I wanted to share it on here. I have only met one other person with Alopecia, and I thought this was just so meant to be. I'm excited to join this support group, January just seems too far away.
