MGFA-sanctioned Support Groups offer you support, resources, educational programming, and time to connect with others who know what you're going through.
Share Your Story
Share your MG experiences openly and freely in a safe setting. Sharing your MG journey can offer you a sense of empowerment, help others, and give you a chance to learn new strategies for living with MG.
Learn from Local Professionals
Support Groups offer educational programming and invite guest speakers to present on a variety of topics. Many times, we schedule medical professionals and neurologists who can address questions, or wellness experts to give you tips about MG management. Industry partners also may join to showcase new research studies and treatments. There are opportunities to learn about exercising techniques, insurance information, wellness, diet and more.
Support for Caregivers and Family Members
Support Groups are led by the community and naturally become family oriented. We typically turn to our family and friends first, but they may need support too! Support Group meetings are an opportunity for your family, caregiver and / or friends to learn more about MG.
Virtual and In Person
MGFA offers both virtual and in-person Support Group meetings. Virtual meetings are open to anyone in the MG Community no matter where you live.
Specialty Support Groups
Current specialty groups meet the needs of caregivers, Spanish speakers, people with seronegative MG, children and their families, and young adults. These are all offered virtually.
