Polk County Florida
I'm looking for support groups and places for me and my boyfriend to go to learn about Hep C
Hi KristenS43! Hopefully others in the community will see your post and be able to provide you with some resources! Unfortunately, I'm not around that area, so I'm not quite sure what would be the best local option! However, I did find this article, https://hepatitisc.net/living/benefits-of-support-groups/ with the following information on support and information groups:
"If you are interested in joining a support group, ask your doctor, social worker or case manager about resources for existing groups in your area. Various websites including, HCVadvocate.org, are useful resources, groups are listed by state and local area. If you are interested in starting a group, Hepatitis C Message and Support Group, Inc, may be a vital resource as it provides free services on initiating and facilitating a group."
It sounds like HCVadvocate.org may be a great place to look for local options!
Please keep us posted! -Casey, HepatitisC.net Team
