have a wife, girlfriend or daughter with cancer.

A 4-week (consecutive Tuesdays) support
program for children 5-12 who have a parent or grandparent
with cancer. Children participating in this program
will:
- Learn about changes caused by illness
in the family through songs, games, and creative
activities.
- Learn to identify their own feelings
about cancer & how it affects them personally.
- Learn strategies for coping with
stress and ways to take care of themselves.
Newcomers Orientation
If you are new to the community, we encourage
you to attend a Newcomers' Orientation meeting. These
meetings, open to adults with cancer, family and friends,
are typically led by a cancer survivor and last an hour.
There will be an overview of the entire program. Meetings
are held every Monday at 10:00am. No RSVP
required.
Weekly Support Groups
Ongoing groups for people with cancer and/or primary
caregivers are the heart of the program. In
Participant Groups, people with cancer offer support to
one another, explore new ways of dealing with the stresses
of
cancer and learn techniques to become partners with their
health care team. In Family/ Caregiver Groups, people
explore ways of supporting their loved ones in
their fight for recovery from cancer, while getting some
much needed personal support for themselves.
RSVP or call us for more
information 404-843-1880.
Networking Groups
Networking groups are monthly or bimonthly groups that are
diagnosis and/or situation specific. These drop–in groups
offer people an opportunity to share common feelings and
concerns relevant to their situation. Networking groups
are only open to individuals with cancer, with the
exception of our Blood Cancer group, which welcomes
caregivers.

• Breast Cancer - 2nd & 4th Wednesdays
