  • Some groups do not schedule their meetings far in advance due to leader availability and/or to allow for flexibility when scheduling speakers or for other reasons.  It is important to double-check the ATA Events calendar for the most up-to-date information on Support Group/Self-Help meetings.
  • New groups form all the time, so be sure to check back frequently if you don’t see one in your area.
  • If you don’t see a group in your area, but want to connect with a support system, ATA also has Help Network volunteers who provide one-on-one email and phone support and education. You can view that listing here.

Disclaimer: Each of the support groups referenced here are independently operated and led by volunteers who wish to provide education and support to the tinnitus community.  The American Tinnitus Association (ATA) does not sponsor or endorse these activities and expressly disclaims any responsibility for the conduct of any independent support group or the information they may provide.  ATA is not a health care provider and you should consult with a primary care physician or hearing health professional for qualified medical advice on tinnitus or related disorders.
