EDS Chicago Support

Your attention! We are in the midst of changes, and therefore new membership is CLOSED, and this site will end by the end of the year. Not to worry, please head to our website edschicago.org where you can stay in touch, and also sign up for our email lists where events will be announced moving forward. Or if you are local to the Chcagoland or tri-state area, you can still find us on FB.

Most of our MeetUps will be virtual until further notice, some in person events are resuming. We are a local support and awareness group for people with the Connective Tissue Disorders of Ehlers-Danlos-Syndrome, the Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders and all their co-morbidities, living, attending school or working in either Chicago or the surrounding areas. The group is also open to friends and families of people living with these connective tissue disorders. Members exchange resources and plan outreaches to raise awareness in the Chicagoland area, and provide general support for each other!

We meet the first Saturday of the month unless otherwise noted, with a different topic or general discussion. Please visit our website www.EDSChicago.org
