Hi, I'm new to this and I'm so glad I found this site . I actually live in Chino Hills and although it would be great to have a group close by, I am willing to travel to support groups in So. Cal. LA area is not so far, San Diego or especially San luis Obispo are getting a bit too far to go regularly. Would like to find something that meets weekly. I understand...
