At Circle of Hope, our support groups are open to everyone, free of charge. Our support group is open to both men and women of all ages diagnosed with all forms of cancer. This program is open to our entire community and all those affected by cancer including family, friends and caregivers of those who have been diagnosed. Our support group meets in a warm and comfortable setting known as “the living room” where you are invited to partake in meaningful discussions or to just come and sit and listen to those who have walked in your shoes.

In addition to support around diagnosis and treatment, our support group also specializes in the care and support you need as the years go by. Many clients are still dealing with the long-term effects of cancer treatment, multiple years after recovery.

One of the most important parts of any cancer diagnosis is having a strong support structure. Family and friends play an important role in your recovery. However, it is also important to have a group of individuals that have experienced the things you may be experiencing. Through a support group, you will develop great relationships with others who have walked and are currently walking in your shoes. Together we can make a difference. Our support program is equally valuable to those currently diagnosed and in treatment, and to those that have been out of treatment for years. You will find that you will have questions regarding how you may be feeling long after you are cancer free.

While “you are cancer free” are the words we all long to hear, believe it or not—that’s when you need the strongest support system yet. One of our clients explained it like she was flying to a foreign country—the plane landed safely, but she was in an unfamiliar airport, not knowing what to do next.

We provide an upbeat environment that will empower and educate along the way. Our mentors and facilitators have all experienced their own cancer diagnoses and are now working with others to assist in your journey.
