A support group can connect you to other people who understand exactly what you’re facing. Here are support groups we offer through Temple’s Lung Center:
Support Groups
COPD
Living with a chronic lung disease like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can be challenging, but the right support can improve your quality of life and your outlook on your disease.
Pulmonary Fibrosis
Many people with pulmonary fibrosis find it helpful to talk to others who understand their challenges and can offer support and advice.
Smoking Cessation
Being part of a group of people you relate to may help you through the process of quitting smoking and keep you committed to a smoke-free life.
Sarcoidosis
Sarcoidosis is a complex disease that can involve multiple organs in the body, and can be difficult for patients who suffer from it as there is no cure. Connecting patients with this support group can lead to advances in research as we strive to better understand this disease.
