CanCare Atlanta has gone virtual! Phone, video call, email, text, snail mail all work when reaching out to someone who needs emotional support when facing the trials of cancer treatment and recovery. Until it's safe to meet in person, we'll be virtually by the side of those who need us.
Our volunteers are cancer survivors who provide one-on-one emotional support to people who are currently being treated for cancer. We also have former caregivers who support the cancer patients' caregivers. We provide detailed training and support for our volunteers.
Please check out our website at cancare.org for more information.
