Global Patient Support Groups


Support groups provide patients, caregivers and their family members with a network of individuals experiencing similar issues. Support groups can provide you with practical and emotional support you may need during this time. The MDS Foundation, Inc. (MDSF) has compiled a list of US and international MDS-specific support groups, as well as support groups that target multiple blood disorders.

The MDSF has successfully coordinated the development of several patient support groups worldwide that are MDS-specific. The MDSF offers administrative and financial assistance to help those that would like to start an MDS support group in their region.

All MDSF partners are invited to join us in moving these efforts forward! If you are interested in joining others to help develop a much needed MDS support group in your region… Contact us today!
