There is an ILD/IPF Support Group held on the 2nd Monday of every month from 1:30p-3:30p.


Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) are different from COPD. The support group is open to all PEP members, families, and friends, as well as anyone in the South Bay.


The group is currently meeting on Zoom. Please contact us to be added to the email list for the class.

Lunch & Learn

Exercise is now being held at the Torrance Memorial Medical Specialty Center at 2801 Lomita Blvd, Suite 335.


PEP hours are Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:00p-5:30p. Reach out if you would like to receive the medical consent forms needed in order to join us!

Field Trips

During the spring and summer months, the PEP Pioneers make various trips around Southern California, visiting sites such as museums, Presidential libraries, bus tours, casinos, and even harbor cruises!
