Support Groups
Weekly Support Groups
On-going professionally-led support groups are the heart of The Wellness Community. In groups, people with cancer and their adult loved ones find support, explore ways of coping with the stress of a cancer diagnosis and treatment, and learn how to be active in enhancing their health and well-being. If you are considering joining a weekly Participant Group or a Caregiver Group, please attend a Newcomer Orientation to learn more about the benefits of our groups and the process of joining a weekly group.
