TMA Georgia Myositis Support Group meets every fourth Saturday from 10:30–11:30 AM ET, except December.
Peer-led support groups matter at every stage of the journey. Even if you’re currently thriving, your presence and story can bring hope and reassurance to others who may be facing challenges. At TMA, we pride ourselves on inspiring hope while walking alongside one another with understanding and compassion. Support groups are also a wonderful place to exchange local resources, practical tips, and connections that make daily life a little easier.
