Join HFM’s virtual Men’s Support Group on Monday, December 4 at 6:00pm-7:30pm.

During this men’s group discussion you are welcome to share your thoughts and ideas on your daily lives with other men who have a bleeding disorder. This group will be facilitated by two experienced hemophilia treatment center (HTC) social workers, David Rushlow, LMSW, and Karen Boyd, LMSW.

On December 4th, Jill A. Foley from Michigan State University for Bleeding and Clotting will be joining the group to speak about dental health.

Prior to her nursing career, she practiced as a Registered Dental Hygienist for over 20 years.
