The Napa Valley FM Support Group
1937 Kansas Ct.
Napa, CA 94559

The support group is an educational group open to patients, families, friends, and health care professionals interested in learning more about the diagnosis, treatment, research and living with FM.

Meetings
The group meets one Saturday each month. Meetings are usually on the 3rd Saturday, but this changes depending upon holidays and availability of speakers. The meetings, from 12:30-2:30 PM, are held at Napa Valley College, 2277 Napa-Vallejo Highway in the ASB Lounge in the cafeteria building (map).

There is a 1/2 hour "social" from 12-12:30 PM. Members and guests are welcome to bring a lunch or snack with them.

Comments
Most months there is a speaker (i.e., MD, physical therapist, occupational therapist, psychologist, pharmacist, acupuncturist, etc.).

There is no charge for the meeting. We have members and guests from the valley (Napa, St. Helena, Yountville, Calistoga) as well as Fairfield, Vaccaville, Vallejo, Crockett, Petaluma, and Sonoma. We welcome new members and guests and have placed our meeting time to allow for easy travel during daylight hours.

Healthworks puts out a newsletter entitled FM Update 2000 once a month which lists the meeting times and topics as well as other information and articles of interest. The subscription is covered by the support group membership fee of $24.00/year.

 

An * next to a group name indicates that this group may be defunct or inactive.
