Emotional Support



Connect with Cancer Survivors

Talking with someone who has had cancer can provide invaluable help and direction. Whether you talk one-on-one, join a cancer support group, or chat online, we can help connect you to the support that fits you.

Caregivers and Families Need Support, Too

Learn more about your loved one’s cancer and get new ideas from others. Some cancer support groups meet in hospital settings, some within a community agency, or even in a caregiver’s home. Contact us to find a cancer support group that’s right for you.

One-on-One Patient Navigator Support

Our knowledgeable patient care team can identify and connect you to the local resources you need to manage your cancer treatment and related issues. Contact us to talk one-on-one with a Society navigator.

Special Events
The American Cancer Society hosts hundreds of community events throughout Illinois to raise funds for the cancer fight – and raise hope, too, as we honor people fighting cancer. Join us and find real healing and empowerment to fight back.
