The diagnosis and treatment of cancer can evoke many feelings and concerns.
Many people find it helpful to speak with others who have experienced a similar situation.
Support groups are intended to provide a safe, supportive environment in which to discuss concerns related to cancer and its treatment. The groups are supportive in nature and confidentiality is maintained. There are numerous support groups throughout the Portland Metropolitan area that focus on various types and stages of cancer, including cancer survivorship and groups intended for patients, family members and caretakers.
