Over 24 Active Support Groups
Myotonic currently sponsors 24 active support groups around the US and internationally, in addition to our online and phone based groups. We are incredibly grateful for the commitment of our support group facilitators and the vital role that they play for the DM community. Support groups provide a space for people to connect, share stories and challenges, and support one and other. These groups create lasting relationships and can help people feel less isolated and alone.
