Post-Treatment Survivorship Support Group

Our post-treatment survivorship support group provides a safe space to connect with others who have completed treatment and is led by an oncology social worker who provides emotional and practical support.

Online

Connect with others in our free, 15-week online support group for people who have completed their cancer treatment within the past 18 months. In this group led by an oncology social worker, people can share their personal experiences, ways of coping and helpful resources. Online support groups take place using a password-protected message board format (not live chat or video conference).

Our group:

  • Reduces feelings of loneliness, anxiety and distress
  • Helps you learn new ways of coping
  • Increases feelings of hope and empowerment
  • Provides you with practical information about treatment and resources
  • Helps you communicate better with your medical team and loved ones

To join this group, you will need to complete our online registration process. After joining this password-protected group, you can read and post messages 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

At this time, CancerCare’s online support groups are only available to people residing within the United States (including Puerto Rico and U.S. territories).

From Our Group Members

"I always felt comfortable to share my feelings and thoughts because I know the group is a 'safe' place. The group was a place I could go when I was feeling down but knew the group could help me turn things around." --Angela

"Having other survivors to talk to, who understand what you are going through, is very helpful. You can't always talk to your partner or friends, since they are not the patient - their experience of your cancer is different. Putting your anxieties on them is not always 'fair' - but someone else who has been through the same thing 'gets it.'" --Wendy
