weekly support groups

Our weekly support groups are facilitated by licensed family therapists and are available to people with any type or stage of cancer. We also have groups for caretakers, friends, spouses, and family members of someone with cancer. In order to join a group, we ask that you first attend one of our "Welcome to Wellness" meetings, which are held every Friday at 11:00am, or every Monday evening at 6:30pm. This introductory session provides the background, purpose, and philosophy of our program.

It is our hope and desire that you will find strength, hope, and friendship from your support group to help encourage you in your fight for recovery.  All groups listed here meet at our Redondo Beach facility, 109 W. Torrance Blvd., Redondo Beach, CA  90277.  Below are the weekly meeting times:

Networking groups meet less frequently than  our weekly groups. These groups offer participants and their support persons opportunities to meet with others who are facing treatment similar cancer, such as lung, leukemia, breast, etc. or treatment side effects, such as lymphedema. While these groups don't meet as often as "the heart of our program weekly groups," they do engender in those attending a feeling of Community. The networking groups are all drop-in. You don't need to attend a Welcome to Wellness meeting before coming to the networking group.
