ThyCa South Florida Support Group
Tri-county area
| Meets: |
ThyCa South Florida meets on the last Saturday of every month from 10:00 to 11:30 AM.
The November and December meetings are canceled due to holiday season.
ThyCa remains cautious due to the evolving COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation.
We do expect some support group meeting sites to begin opening for in-person
meetings. We realize not all locations will open for the foreseeable future.
As such, ThyCa will continue to hold virtual meetings. We encourage all
support group members to be careful and stay safe.
Please take care of yourself. We suggest that you
follow the precautions recommended by your local health agencies and the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

ThyCa South Florida holds FREE virtual meetings starting on the last Saturday of each month, at our regular time, 10:00 to 11:30 AM Eastern Time. Members of our group or others are welcome. Please e-mail our group facilitators at South-FL@thyca.org for connection info. We will continue to meet online until the shelter-in-place order has been lifted and ThyCa approves a return to in-person meetings. We look forward to seeing you there.

Nothing discussed at a support group should be considered as a replacement for a doctor's care. We do not give medical advice. We do share support and our own experiences. We are each ultimately responsible for our own care.
