Patient + Care Partner Support
You are not alone in your IgAN journey. If you’d like to get help and resources from others on the same path, we offer several peer support resources to connect you with other IgAN patients and care partners.
Virtual Support Groups
We would like to invite you to participate in our monthly IgA Nephropathy Support Groups! We hold patient support groups virtually on the third Monday of every month and Care Partner support groups the third Tuesday of every month to give IgAN patients and those that care for them an opportunity to meet each other and share their journeys. Our full calendar of upcoming events can be found on our website by visiting igan.org/events
If you want to connect with others who understand your journey, reach out to John at john@igan.org for Patient Support Groups or Alena at alena@igan.org for Care Partner Support Groups. We look forward to meeting you virtually!
If you’re interested, please fill out the form below and you will receive details about the Support Groups. We hope to see you there!
