SLE Workshop

Rheumatology Support and Education Services


"I almost didn't go to the SLE Workshop on beauty make-overs. But I'm so glad I did. It helped me feel confident and find my inner beauty again". -Tijuana Murray

 

What: This monthly Education and Support group for people with lupus and their family and friends has been ongoing since 1985. Come for one meeting - or come every month. Lectures by lupus care experts are followed by informal discussion.

When: Meets the fourth Thursday of each month from 12 to 2 pm (except for December and August) in the 2nd Floor Conference Center at HSS. Call the Workshop coordinator, weekdays between 9 am and 5 pm, to get on the mailing list for monthly topic announcements.
