CancerCare's East End Long Island office, also serving the North Fork and Riverhead, was opened in 2005 to ensure that residents of Long Island’s East End have full access to all CancerCare services.

CancerCare provides free, professional support services to individuals, families, caregivers, and the bereaved to help them better cope with and manage the emotional and practical challenges arising from cancer. Our services include counseling and support groups, educational publications and workshops, and financial assistance. All of our services are provided by professional oncology social workers and are offered completely free of charge.
