I haven't been able to find a support group in my area and was wondering if starting one would be a possibility. Does anyone have any information on how I would/should go about it?
contact ASAP.org their phone number and contact info is on the page. I just started one in my area (Butler, PA [just north of Pittsburgh]). Before I contacted them I did a little extra leg work like finding a place to hold the meeting and approx time meetings are to be help. Example our group for started is 1/month for 3 hours. I have also started a facebook page and facebook group for our area. There are other organization that will help you as well. If you need more infor let me know or drop me a line.

Mike has given you some great idea. I found my support group through the ASAP website. We meet one Thur out the month from 630pm to 830pm. We agreed on the time so people coming from work would be able to attend.

Thanks everyone for your help! I am going to contact ASAP, then go from there. I am close to Geisinger Medical Center in Danville. As far as I know, they don't have a support group yet. I am also going to talk to my NS and NL about it. They post things at their office and hopefully they will send people with CM and SM in that direction. Thanks again. Hope you are all well today!!!
