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. You can sign up to be the first to know about future CF Circle sessions.

By sharing your experiences and hearing from others, you can find camaraderie in the ups and downs of your CF journey. This mutual support can not only foster a sense of belonging but can also provide practical guidance to help you navigate your path forward with confidence.
