LADN Links 2026
LADN Links will pair 3-5 LADN members in groups with the goal of connecting through your group's preferred method of communication once a month. Our aim is to create friendships through the shared experience of dysautonomia and to combat the isolation that so often comes with a chronic illness. 

Expectations: Please fill out this form if you would like to be linked in a small group. Expectations will vary based on group, but will include creating and maintaining relationships with the people who you are linked with. This may consist of email, snail mail, phone calls, or in-person meetups depending on the choices you make in this survey. Whatever method of connection your group chooses, we suggest that you schedule a monthly way to connect. This can me a monthly coffee, zoom, exchange of mail, etc. 

In addition to your group-planned communication, there will be a quarterly check-in with all LADN Links participants. This may be a zoom meeting, a letter exchange, a scavenger hunt, or something else with the goal of checking in on participation and keeping groups going! 

Questions: Please respond to each prompt as directed and feel free to reach out to Sally if you have any questions! 

Confidentiality: This form will be used by LADN staff for the purpose of matching individuals in the LADN Links program. We will share your name and email with the people you are linked with and may include any diagnoses and hobbies/interests that you have in common.
