Community Conversations are a place to connect, learn, and feel understood. They’re designed for individuals and families affected by neurofibromatosis (NF) and offer a welcoming, supportive space to share experiences and build community.

Online Conversations

NF Midwest online Community Conversations are held virtually and may meet regularly or as needed. Some are ongoing groups created for specific communities or life stages, while others are formed around a shared topic or interest. These conversations are informal, supportive, and focused on connection. Many sessions also include an NF expert who can offer insight and answer questions.

Community Conversations

NF Midwest Community Conversations are in-person and bring individuals and families affected by NF together in a welcoming, relaxed setting. These gatherings are conversational by design, guided by the interests, questions, and experiences of those in the room. With opportunities to learn from professionals and connect with others who understand, each conversation is unique—and shaped by the community itself.
