WA State Regional Support Group Events Calendars
Support Groups provide a safe place for everyone to share their experiences, learn new skills, and find resources that can help. The map shown below is a visual breakdown of which counties are in each of the regions. The calendar (below the map) is sectioned into the four regions in Washington State so that you can find a support group meeting near you.
Why a calendar and not a list of groups? Many in our community have shared that they think about going to a group “today” along with letting us know that a list is overwhelming. Please contact us if you have questions or need assistance.

They are opportunities for both people with brain injury and their family members to discuss the difficulties and hardships they are facing, as well as the accomplishments and joys in their life. Many individuals avoid support groups because they feel that they are only complaint sessions that focus on the negative aspects of life after brain injury, but this is not the case. Support groups can be an opportunity for individuals to support and encourage one another, not only through the rough times but also through the good times. We look forward to seeing you! |
