Cancer Survivorship Peer Support Group
Our Goals: to educate through practical insight and firsthand experience but also through professionals in various fields. Empower people, share information, act as role models for each other, and to provide a safe place to talk about personal issues, experiences, struggles and thoughts. A peer generated emotional support group, led by a mental health specialist, for those diagnosed with cancer. We share common problems and experiences associated with this fight. We support each other by allowing open talk with people who understand what the obstacles are.

Cancer Caregiver Support Group
Studies show that support groups improve quality of life and survivorship for patients and caregivers with cancer. My group offers vital face-to-face connections with others in a safe, confidential surrounding. My group is here to support you during this difficult journey. I offer a safe and caring environment for you to: to meet with others who are experiencing similar challenges, to explore and share feelings about your situation, to discuss problems and stress arising from the illness and treatment, to learn about resources and treatment options, and ways to manage side effects to share humor, meaning, and hope.
