There are many groups across the country that are dedicated to supporting people living with cancer, their family and friends, and loved ones who are no longer with us. These groups focus on different aspects of support and care.
To find a group that serves your local community, ask the resource person in your hospital or treatment clinic, or your social worker.
Canadian Cancer Society
