Support

The following groups are for support, Q&A, mutual aid, sharing information, and/or local advocacy efforts. Each group has different rules about who can join. Be sure to answer any membership questions presented when you ask to join.

This list is a work in progress. More will be added, and better organization is in the works!

If you wish to start a local Facebook group for your area following the Fragrance Free Friends model:
FIRST please join Fragrance Free Friends Admins. This will give you the best shot at success with your new group. Local groups have the potential to help in ways that the big groups cannot, but you’ll need to learn best practices in order to harness this potential. The admins group provides: (1) very important setup guidance, (2) a way to identify other admins/areas (so you don’t duplicate efforts), and (3) a way to announce your new group so we can publicize it here and elsewhere.
