About this organization
Mission
The mission of Cancer Support Community is to ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action, and sustained by community. All programs and services are provided at no cost to participants.
About
Support groups for patients and families: Support groups for people with cancer and their loved ones provide a unique experience of trust and community in a caring and uplifting environment. All groups are facilitated by licensed psychotherapists. In CSC groups, people affected by cancer find hope, support, and reduce feelings of unwanted isolation and loss of control by sharing with others who are similarly situated. Groups also take place at community outreach locations for the underserved community and for those who are unable to travel to CSC's main location.
