Gilda’s Toronto has been offering support groups for over 20 years. Facilitated by mental health professionals we offer virtual support groups for children, youth and adults with cancer-related stress.

 

For eight weeks you will gather with the same individuals to discuss the impact of cancer and decrease stress while talking to others who are facing similar circumstances. Currently, our groups are offered virtually through the platform Zoom and run three times a year.

• To participate in a support group you are required to go through Gilda’s Toronto intake process. To start that process you can click on Become A Member and fill out the form.

• Support groups are not operated on a drop-in basis a commitment to the entire eight weeks is required.  A commitment to the group helps to build community and allows for topics and conversations to be built on week by week.

• The virtual support requires a computer, phone or tablet with a camera,  internet connection and a  private room without distraction to participate.
