Surviving & Thriving After Cancer

More than ever before, people are surviving cancer as a result of advances in early detection, treatment and follow-up care. However, receiving a cancer diagnosis and undergoing subsequent treatment can often lead to other life challenges. Physical and financial hardships might persist even after treatment ends, and emotional struggles, strains on personal relationships, and the fear of cancer recurrence all make survivorship difficult at times. 

But with guidance, information, and loving support, life after a cancer diagnosis can be meaningful, productive, and even inspiring. We hope you will join us for a special evening of learning and focused discussion about how to thrive after cancer.
