We are a small group of people who meet once a month to discuss issues that affect us and new ways to deal with the things that just pop up. We are a positive group, with eyes on the future and ways to "Live a Life worth Living". We have a very small library to share. Our origins began with the 'Chronic Pain Association of Canada'. We have a pain focused forum annually.
