About CF Circles
Feel heard and share your experiences with others through CF Circles. These topic-based, hour-long small group discussions allow primarily adults with cystic fibrosis to gather virtually with a handful of people to talk about their unique experiences, such as not benefiting from CFTR modulators, receiving a delayed CF diagnosis, living as a Black person with CF, and more.
I felt alone in my diagnosis and kind of like I didn’t really fit in anywhere. Last night I felt I gained a new family." — CF Circles participant
Discussions provide an opportunity to connect with and find validation from those who understand what you’re going through. Attendees are divided into small breakout groups of approximately 5-10 individuals based on their specific experiences to allow for more intimate, personalized conversations. Each group is led by a member of the CF community who has been trained to facilitate discussion and create a welcoming environment. Sessions accommodate a maximum of 100 registrations. If interest exceeds capacity, an additional session will be planned shortly after. Interested in playing a more active role in CF Circles? Sign up to learn more about leading future sessions.
