Sickle Cell Disease Support Group

This is not a library sponsored event.

Description of Event

“Cayenne Wellness is dedicated to serving adults with sickle cell disease through education, advocacy, and communal support. One of our regular services is a monthly support group. Our support groups began in Los Angeles but we now have them in Fresno, Loma Linda, and Antelope Valley as well. We’re excited to bring a support group to the San Diego community in 2018! Support groups will meet on the fourth Tuesday of every month, from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. Occasionally, there will be speakers who come and discuss important issues that sickle cell patients may face, such as maintaining stress or eating well to reduce inflammation, other times the event may just be a time for sickle cell warriors to connect and check-in with one another. These support groups can help sickle cell warriors find a community and others who understand their pained experiences. If you have any questions at all regarding our support groups or other services, please email us at http://www.cayennewell.org or email us at info@cayennewellness.org. Refreshments and snacks provided!"
