Living with lung disease is not easy.
Having someone to share your stories with and learn from is essential.
Because of donations from Manitobans, a variety of support groups are available for people living with lung disease, including:
- Manitoba Quits - A Facebook support group page to help you quit smoking. Anyone can join.
-
Manitoba Lung Transplant Education and Support Group - This support group meets regularly in our office. There is also a Facebook support group page. The meetings and the Facebook page are only open to those the lung transplant team has accepted for assessment, are waiting for a transplant, or have had a transplant. For more information, please call us at 204-774-5501 ext 242.
-
Pulmonary Fibrosis Support Group - Open to patients, family, and friends to help understand and support those diagnosed with PF. Click here to link to the PF support group page.

Long COVID Support Group - Meetings take place bi-weekly on Thursdays over Zoom. Click here for more info about the Long COVID Support Group
