support group?

[Wolfieandcoco]

hi my father in law has MS and is looking for a support group that meets in person in the South Bay of Los Angeles. He is open to support groups on zoom as well. Does anyone know of any? Or any resources I can find.

Sorry I live in the Southeast, but contact your local MS Society and MSAA, they have great resources. Good luck.

There are local So Cal chapters of both MSAA and NMSS, both can give you information about support groups in the area. I no longer live in the LA Basin, but five years ago there were many active groups. There is a MS center near UCLA that is sponsored by the NMSS which may be helpful. (MSAA - Multiple Sclerosis Association of America; NMSS - National Multiple Sclerosis Society: both have publications and sponsor events)

Not living in california I have no idea what meets out there period but you might try calling the National MS Society at 1 800 - fightms and see if they know of anything in your area. I would also recommend this chat room as he will find no better support anywhere. We will make him feel like he belongs ad he is part of our family. Fancy59.
