Northern Alberta Spondyloarthritis Support Group
Well, it’s been almost 2 and a half months since the Patient Forum held at West Edmonton Mall. With the help of the folks at the Arthritis Society and the Canadian Spondylitis Association, we now have a date and a place for our first Support Group Meeting.
We’ll be seeing how many people show up, who will have interest in continuing a support group, and who will be interested in volunteering to work in managing the group and it’s upcoming meetings.
As well, we’ll be looking to see if there is interest in creating an Alberta Chapter of the Canadian Spondylitis Association - in addition to the Support Group, this would give us an opportunity to participate in raising public awareness, fundraising activities, creating a website, and other activities by patients, for patients.
Anyone who wants to contact me regarding anything around this meeting, please don’t hesitate to! I can be reached at kevin.shubert@gmail.com.
