There are many benefits to having your support group listed with AAKP. AAKP will list contact information for independent support groups that are renal related and meet at least once a month in a designated location. If you have any questions, please call AAKP at (800) 749-2257 or send an e-mail to info@aakp.org.

• Support group information including statewide locations, contact information for support group leaders and the dates, times and location of meetings will be listed on the AAKP Web site.

• In addition to being listed on the AAKP Web site, support group information will be featured periodically in AAKP’s magazines.

• The AAKP Web site will feature helpful hints to assist support groups in their activities, such as how to recruit volunteers, meeting ideas and much more.

• For those individuals interested in forming an independent support group, a “Support Group Guidebook” is available containing valuable information about starting a support group in your area.

• AAKP will provide the support groups educational materials (as requested) to distribute during meetings.

• Support groups will receive advanced notice of any AAKP events being held in their local communities.

• AAKP will provide up to 10 support groups members with a discounted membership to AAKP.

The Only Actions AAKP Requests in Return
