What we’re about
We are individuals living with chronic illnesses and the people who love them, coming together in San Diego to create meaningful connections based on understanding and shared experiences. Our community knows that empathy, friendship, and genuine connection are powerful forms of medicine that complement any treatment plan.
In this welcoming space, we celebrate the unique bonds that form when people truly understand each other's journeys. Whether you're navigating a chronic condition yourself or supporting someone who is, you'll find friends who "get it" without lengthy explanations—people who understand both the visible and invisible aspects of chronic illness life.
From time to time, our community spotlights San Diego businesses, healthcare providers, and support services that members have found helpful in their health journeys. While we don't formally endorse any specific providers or services, we value sharing these resources as part of our ongoing support for one another.
The heart of our community is the authentic friendships that develop. Here, casual coffee meetups become lifelines, text message check-ins become vital support, and shared recommendations become game-changers. Both those with chronic conditions and their supporters find validation, understanding, and the relief that comes from not having to navigate these waters alone.
Join us—whether you're living with illness or supporting someone who is—and discover the warmth of being truly seen and understood. Together, we transform challenging health journeys into opportunities for connection, growth, and unexpected joy.
Proudly supported by Trusscare, a local San Diego resource specializing in healthcare communication and advocacy.
