From emotional check-ins to hands-on assistance, we exist to remind you—no one faces breast cancer alone.

Exceptional Team, Extraordinary Care

What truly sets Breast Cancer Support Services apart is our people. Clients frequently describe our staff as “incredible” and “amazing,” and it’s easy to see why. Our social workers, patient navigators, and support volunteers bring not only expertise but genuine warmth to every interaction. They coordinate appointments, share up-to-date information on treatment options, and personally guide each client toward resources that fit their unique needs.

Compassionate Emotional Support

Facing breast cancer can feel overwhelming, but our emotional support services are designed to ease that journey. One client exclaims, “This place is the best! Facing breast cancer, they were by my side every step of the way!” From one-on-one counseling and peer-led support groups to mindfulness workshops, we address the emotional and mental health needs that often go unspoken. Our safe, confidential spaces empower you to share fears, celebrate victories, and draw strength from others who truly understand. We believe that healing encompasses both body and spirit.

Engaging Programs & Community Events

Connection is at the heart of recovery. That’s why our calendar is brimming with programs and community events designed to foster friendship, creativity, and resilience. Our signature Pink Power Night has become a hallmark of hope—one attendee shared, “So happy I made the effort to attend that first Pink Power Night.” From art therapy sessions and gentle yoga classes to educational seminars on nutrition and self-care, each offering encourages participants to learn, laugh, and lean on one another. You’ll find many opportunities to connect with others walking a similar path, forging bonds that last well beyond treatment.

Essential Material Support: Bras & Prosthetics

Physical comfort and confidence are vital to the healing process. At Breast Cancer Support Services, we provide personalized fittings for specialized bras and prosthetics—free of charge. One grateful family relates, “My mother was able to obtain a bra and prosthetic. Highly recommended.” Our certified fitters ensure each client leaves feeling comfortable, supported, and confident in their appearance. By addressing this often-overlooked need, we help restore a sense of normalcy and dignity during a time of great change.

Financial Assistance That Makes a Difference

Medical bills, travel costs, and everyday expenses can quickly become overwhelming. That’s why we offer a streamlined financial assistance program. Eligible clients receive grants for treatment-related expenses, transportation, lodging, and more. Recipients frequently share how timely aid relieved immense pressure: “Thank you SOOO much for the financial help! It came at just the right time.” By removing financial barriers, we help you focus on recovery, not bills, so you can devote your energy to healing.
