Support Groups - coming soon!

People with lupus often feel alone with their disease and the everyday struggles it brings to their lives. LFA support groups, moderated by trained facilitators, provide a warm and caring environment where people with lupus and loved ones can share experiences, methods of coping and insights.

Share Your Story

Share your story and inspire others. In your own words, we highlight the perspectives and personal experiences of people who struggle with lupus each day. Mostly, we celebrate what makes the lupus community strong by sharing our journey, together.
