   1. Hi Jane,
      At this time there are no support groups in palm beach county that we are aware of. If you are a family member or loved one of someone with BPD, and you would like to start a support group where you are or get more information on our family education program (we could potentially offer a 1-day workshop in Palm Beach County), please contact Jack jackikrone@gmail.com or Pam pamh1224@gmail.com. If you would like more information, please e-mail us at info@fbpda.org and we will be glad to talk to you over e-mail or in person.

9. Hi, Are there any support groups in the St. Petersburg/Gulfport area?

   1. Hi Gini,

      Sorry for the delay. We are an all volunteer group here and get behind on website comments. That being said, we don’t know of any support groups in St. Pete/Gulfport. As far as we know, we are the only one in the state, though there are treatment providers.
      There are also online supports, check out our resources link for suggestions. Good luck to you and if you find something, let us know. Nancy Gordon
