Pain Support and Wellness Groups: A free online community of support for people in pain

Many people living with pain find peer support programs help them to feel heard and understood, and reduce their feelings of isolation and helplessness that often accompany pain.In this month's episode of the Pain Waves podcast, we discuss how our free Pain Support and Wellness Groups are providing people in pain with opportunities to meet regularly online and build a community of support while learning about pain management and sharing coping strategies. We're joined by a number of different guests - Dorota Hedzelek, Pain BC's Director of Support Services, as well as two volunteer facilitators, Dwayne and Juhree, and two group participants, Jenny and Mike - who offer their unique perspectives on the program and how it benefits people in pain.To learn more about accessing a Pain Support and Wellness Group, visit https://www.painbc.ca/supportgroups
