Hi. Is anyone aware of a resource or database for finding local in-person support groups? I’m talking like AA but for T1D. Get me in a room with some coffee and some other people who are going through it! Thanks, fam.

@T1Darrell , most have gone to social media. Where? Age?

@T1Darrell _ **Welcome Darrell to the JDRF TypeOneNation Community Forum!** _

A trusted place to begin is the “ **Resources** ” tab at top of this page and then enter your zip code under ' **JDRF Near Me**". You will see JDRF Chapters in your vicinity, but don’t stop there - get in contact and you may find many Chapters have small sub-chapter meetings scattered about.  
Also, look under Events to see diabetes related activities - great place to find other PwD [person with diabetes] wanting to learn and share. Many colleges and universities also sponsor diabetes centers for information and sharing.

Thank you, both. I’ll see what I can find on social as well as dig into the local chapters. Take care.
