Currently in Alberta in-person peer support groups are being held in Calgary and Edmonton. These meeting are open to everyone including patients, caregivers, family and friends; anyone in the liver community needing support and friendship. It is a safe place to meet and find others also dealing with the effects of liver disease. We talk about diet, nutrition , exercise, current treatments, sometimes bringing in medical and nutrition experts and try to connect our members with information and services as needed. These meetings are held approximately every 8 weeks. If you would like to join a peer support group in your area, please contact Kari, kfurnell@liver.ca for more information.
This help line gives you and your loved one somewhere to turn for answers after diagnosis, helps you understand your disease, and provides you with the resources you need. You can call 1 (800) 563-5483 Monday to Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM EST or email us.
This program is a national network of people living with liver disease that have offered to share their experiences with others. It was developed by the Canadian Liver Foundation as a means to link Canadians like you who have been diagnosed with a liver disease, have a family member who has liver disease or care for someone who suffers from liver disease to talk about your concerns with a peer with a similar experience.
If you would like to be connected with a Peer Supporter in your area, or would like to join the Peer Support Network, please fill out the Peer Support Network Sign-up Form.
