Information on Herpes Support Groups, Hotlines, Support Chats

The Herpes Resource Center (HRC) has an affiliated network of local support (HELP) groups for people concerned about herpes simplex virus. The groups provide a safe, confidential environment where participants can get accurate information and share experiences, fears, and feelings with others who are concerned about herpes. For information on obtaining written publications on the herpes simplex virus, call the National Herpes Hotline at (919) 361-8488. If you are interested in starting a HELP Group in your area, please e-mail Fred Wyand, Program Coordinator, for more details. Information is also available for HPV Support Groups.

Support Groups can also be found through Planned Parenthood and online forums such as Yahoo Groups.
