Support Group Information
Welcome to the Manitoba ME/CFS website and Manitoba ME/CFS Support Group. We are an inclusive group of individuals from all walks of life, and although we are located in Manitoba, Canada, we invite members from other provinces, locations, and countries to join us.
When do we meet?
We meet virtually on the last Saturday of every month at 6:30 p.m. CST. We send out a Zoom link before the meeting, so that you can join us. To be notified, please send us an email at mbmecfs(at)gmail(dot)com.
To connect with us the rest of the month, please feel free to join our Discord meeting page (Link in the top menu of the website).
