This organization is the original Cancer Support Community, and they are an outstanding non-profit. They do the fundraising so cancer patients and their support persons can access support groups, programs and activities without cost. The burdens of cancer diagnosis and treatment can be overwhelming, but the support and resources provided by The Wellness Community make such a difference! I have found their program offerings to be some of the best in the field: Interesting cooking classes teach us how to eat healthy, and there are a variety of movement classes that make exercise a realistic option. Support groups are professionally led and extremely helpful for survivors and supporters. The consistent quality of this organization is what impresses me the most. I was introduced to T'ai Chi Chih at TWC, and it's the first practice that has really caught on for me. I still love it and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to learn something so key to building my health.
