So everyone impacted by cancer receives the support they want and need at every phase of their experience. The Cancer Support Community of Greater Ann Arbor (formerly The Wellness Community of Southeast Michigan) provides free support, education and hope to all people touched by cancer. The Cancer Support Community (CSC) offers people a "home away from home" in a comfortable setting, and a chance to connect with others who are dealing with similar cancer issues. All programs and activities offered at the center are free of charge, and include:
Support. Support groups are available for cancer survivors and their loved ones. All are professionally facilitated, and offer the opportunity to connect and learn from one another. Healthy Lifestyle. Stress management classes such as meditation, and exercise classes like yoga and tai chi can encourage relaxation and improved health. These classes meet weekly. Cooking classes teach nutritional information of benefit to people with cancer, while experimenting with new recipes. Workshops led by experts on a variety of topics provide opportunities to acquire tools, information about cancer, along with techniques to learn how to be an active participant in your cancer journey. Social Support. Social gatherings open to survivors and their loved ones offer a chance to enjoy camaraderie and friendship. We provide the space, you provide the conversation! Resource Referral. CSC maintains a library of information as well as help connecting with the resources you need.
