Since the establishment of the first Support Group, started by Elaine K. Harris in 1983, we have grown to sponsor over 65 groups throughout the United States and Canada.
These groups, run by volunteers, provide Sjögren's patients and family members an opportunity to share their advice and tips for living more comfortably with Sjögren's.
Much can be learned at a support group meeting, whether it is patient-to-patient sharing or listening to an informative presentation by a healthcare professional or other expert. We encourage you – if you are suffering from the symptoms of Sjögren's or diagnosed with Sjögren's – to attend a support group meeting in your area.
