Virtual Support Groups

  • These support groups do not intend to replace individual professional care; a counsellor with lived experience of EDS/chronic illness will facilitate.
  • Advanced registration for each session is required: a link will be sent to EDS Canada Foundation Members upon registration (18 participants per group maximum). All sessions are listed at Eastern Standard Time (Ontario time zone).
  • Participants in the group will be able to receive and offer support to others with similar experiences.
  • Participants are encouraged to join by video for increased connection with others.
  • Groups are offered the 2nd and 4th Fridays of the month.

Registration fee of $10.00.

If you are unable to pay the registration fee, please email [email protected]
