During each Ataxia Connection support group meeting, an outside expert educates the group on a topic of interest to our members. Ataxians and care partners then divide into two groups to discuss the issues and emotions at the forefront of their day with the assistance of certified mental health therapists. Snacks and refreshments are offered. Ataxia Connection’s support group meets on the third Saturday of every other month from 10am – 12noon (new time).
