These virtual groups are kept small to increase comfort and participation. Groups are led by a variety of facilitators, including Dietitians, Therapists, and others.
All groups are open to those living in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Newfoundland. Some groups are available in other parts of Canada so check individual listings for details. Subsidies are available so that cost is not a barrier for anyone.
