Cancer Support Community South Bay provides free emotional and educational support to anyone impacted by cancer. Our programs offer hope, healing, and comfort to not only the individual diagnosed, but their family, friends and loved ones. We offer 200 programs monthly including cancer specific support groups, healthy lifestyle classes (meditation, restorative yoga, tai chi), educational workshops (nutritional cooking classes, financial assistance) and kids/teens programs. In the past 36 years, our free support programs have helped over 25,000 cancer patients and their families. In 2023, we helped 2070 participants in over 18,000 visits. We are a free resource so no one has to go through a cancer journey alone.
