The next support group meeting will be on September 7th at 1:00pm to 3:30pm at the Warwick Public Library, Small Meeting Room, 600 Sandy Lane Warwick, RI.

We will be going over information gathered during the EDNF Conference that was just held in Providence. We hope you can make it! I’m sorry I haven’t been putting up the meeting minutes on here, I know many of us aren’t always able to get to the meetings. If you have some web site knowhow or are willing to learn and would like to help please let us know!
