The Pulmonary Hypertension Association (PHA) has created three new Facebook groups to provide support for the pulmonary hypertension (PH) community! PHA’s Facebook groups provide members with a supportive space to share stories, updates, goals, worries and hopes, and ask questions and affirm others on their PH journeys. Members can share this information with others who understand their unique experiences. Volunteer moderators help maintain a supportive and respectful group environment by vetting requests before members join the group, connecting members with additional resources and ensuring posts respect PHA’s group guidelines. PHA hosts the following groups:
- PHA Caregivers *New*
- PHA Newly Diagnosed with PH *New*
- PHA Parents of Kids with Pulmonary Hypertension *New*
- Long Term Thrivers – for people living with PH for several years
- Generation Hope – for people living with PH between 18 and 39 years old
- CTEPH – for people living with chronic thromboembolic PH, or CTEPH
- PH Plus – for people living with PH associated with another condition
- Teens – for people living with PH between 13 and 19
To join one of these groups, visit PHAssociation.org/community/pha-phriends/ to find the direct Facebook group link. If you have questions or would like to volunteer to be a group moderator, please contact gro.noitaicossAHP@troppuS.
