             EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING

             PROGRAMS





        You may find that a support group can help you better cope with the emotional
        aspects of living with or caring for someone with cancer. Support groups are
        a safe place to share and work through your feelings while helping to reduce
        isolation by meeting with and learning from others in similar situations.


        Wellspring’s professionally facilitated support groups provide a wide range of
        online opportunities to elevate your quality of life.
