Welcome
Portland Area
Friends is a social organization for people 18 years of age and older
dealing with the challenge of herpes.
We are not a group
that provides medical information or treatment options.
The Help group
that does provide medical information and treatment options are listed
under the Portland Area Help Group.
We highly recommend to everyone to participate in the group to educate
themselves about the herpes virus and the medical treatments that are
available.
Our purpose is to
provide a relaxed environment for fun and friendship. We go to local and
seasonal events, happy hours, dinners at local restaurants, movies,
pizza night, and an occasional day trip or camping trip.
Each month, our
members plan our activities to ensure that there is something fun for
everyone
Many members tell
us that they delayed joining the group for a long time because they were
intimidated by the thought of attending their first event. The same
members tell us they wish they had come to their first event sooner,
because they found it fun and helpful.
The members of the
Portland Area Friends welcome you to join us for fun and good times! You
are far from alone in dealing with this situation.
