New Support Groups

Beginning in November, Cancer Pathways will now be offering a Teen Support Group and a Veterans Cancer Support Group.

Tune in to our podcast, Encompassing Cancer

We cover topics like increasing energy and reducing fatigue, hair loss from chemotherapy, navigating the workplace after a diagnosis, the nuances of survivorship, and more!

Follow and listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. 

Tobacco Support Opportunities

We have a variety of opportunities for adults and teens who want to learn more about tobacco products (including e-cigarettes/vapes) or end their dependence!  

We provide a supportive, non-judgemental place to access group insights, resources, and tools for success. 

Find Support

Emotional support groups for cancer patients, caregivers, families, and friends: offering a place for validation, connection, and emotional processing.

Our mission is to provide pathways of support, education, and community to anyone facing cancer – whether it’s before, during, or after a cancer experience.

Programs

Our programs are designed to empower all people impacted by cancer — from youth and teens to patients and their caregivers. We provide these programs cost-free to participants because of the generous support of our donors.

Support

Our support services are open to anyone and include support groups, weekly wellness classes, resource referrals, and emotional support from a licensed clinical social worker (MSW/LCSW)

Resources

We have a comprehensive resource hub on topics like nutrition, caregiving, tobacco and vaping, clinical trials, survivorship, spiritual health, finances/insurance, and more!

Blogs
