Cancer Support Community of Greater Ann Arbor

Cancer Support Community of Greater Ann Arbor is a local nonprofit affiliate of The International Cancer Support Community (CSC), opening our doors in 2007. The Cancer Support Community is the largest and most comprehensive program in the country devoted solely to providing emotional support and education to people with cancer, their caregivers and children – all free of charge.

The components of CSC programs have been shown to improve patient health, mental health, and quality of life. The Cancer Support Community of Greater Ann Arbor is a unique, grassroots organization that was founded locally by a group of committed community volunteers who have each been personally touched by cancer, and who understand that traditional medical treatment is only one piece of successful cancer care. A volunteer Board of Directors governs the Cancer Support Community, and program guidance is offered by a Professional Advisory Board, consisting of experts in the fields of oncology and social services.

Whether a patient, survivor, loved one, or caregiver, Cancer Support Community offers a variety of professionally led programs designed to enhance the quality of life and strengthen survivorship. Offered in person & virtually, our community-based support is offered at no cost, thanks to the support of foundation grants, corporate sponsorships and individual donors.

The CSC recognizes that patients and loved ones holding marginalized identities face inequities throughout the cancer experience. We are committed to providing equitable access and a safe space for members of any race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, and ability.
