The transition after treatment can bring a mix of emotions and new challenges. There is still time to join us for our Cancer Transitions: Moving Beyond Treatment program, which offers a supportive in-person space to focus on rebuilding strength, improving quality of life, and learning practical strategies for navigating survivorship.

Across four weekly 90-minute sessions, participants will explore key areas of survivorship, including nutrition, physical activity, emotional well-being, medical care, finances, and relationships.
