Finding a local support group as a lifelong eczema patient is such a meaningful step — you deserve a community that truly gets it!
Here are some great options to explore for in-person or virtual support in the SF/Bay Area:
- National Eczema Association (NEA) — Based in the Bay Area, the NEA is a fantastic resource and may have local events or group connections. Visit nationaleczema.org to check for local meetups or virtual support options.
- Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) — They host awareness activities and may have regional group connections worth exploring.
- MyEczemaTeam — The online community here connects over 38,000 people with eczema worldwide, so posting this same question to the community feed could surface Bay Area members who know of local groups.
- Your dermatologist's office — Clinics sometimes run or refer patients to local support groups, so it's worth asking at your next appointment.
Virtual groups can be just as powerful as in-person ones, especially for connecting with others who truly understand life with contact and atopic dermatitis. You're not alone in this!
