Education and Support For Those Affected By Neuropathy

Our flagship program...

Monthly Webinar Series

Hearing from medical professionals about peripheral nerve health, mental health, chronic pain and other topics related to peripheral neuropathy gives us food for thought.  We always ask our guest speakers to provide tips or other information our audiences can take away and try.

Webinars are held September to May on the 3rd Wednesday of each month starting at:  3:00 ET 2:00 CT, 1:00 MT, 12:00 PT

Let's Talk...

CNA information line

The CNA information line is often the first point of contact for people new to peripheral neuropathy. Callers speak with a volunteer with years of experience with neuropathy and a collection of information at their fingertips all in the hopes of answering your questions.

Most often these chats are for 30 – 60 minutes. We follow them up with an email containing resources and a summary of information discussed.

Leave us a message and we will contact you with a time to talk.

Compassionate Calling

The members of the CNA can expect to hear from a volunteer if we know they are having a hard time, if they make a request, or, just because we are thinking of them.  

Knowing someone out there cares enough to call gives a person a lift when they need it.

“Thank you for reaching out, for being there.”

2023 Special Program…

Neuropathy Awareness

Have you ever had a friend look puzzled when you tell them you have neuropathy?  We know the feeling when someone looks at you like that.

For 2023 the CNA is focused on raising peripheral neuropathy awareness starting in Calgary, Alberta and surrounding area.  We are contacting medical offices, updating the CNA website and working to make the Calgary Neuropathy Association the top listing when people in our area Google “Neuropathy”.
