Cancer Care Support Groups

Compassionate Cancer Support Groups

Due to COVID-19, all support groups are postponed or online until safe to resume.

Sometimes the best medicine comes in the form of interaction with others, especially those who can relate to your health condition. Sharing your experiences with others offers a sense of community, belonging, and proof that you’re not alone. It can also give you a better understanding of your own disease or illness. Those who participate in support groups often recover faster, experience less pain, and establish lifelong bonds.
