Workshops are hands-on, self-care
activities offered to teach members new skills, such as
Relaxation & Guided Imagery, or keep
minds busy and creative, such as arts &
crafts,
or to practice mind-body skills, such as yoga.
Workshops are offered throughout the month, some on a regular basis, and
some just once. Keep an eye on the
Calendar for workshops that
interest or challenge you.
 
For more formal learning, lectures are offered a few times a month by community volunteers
who are experts in their field. For example, we’ve had lectures on
nutrition, advances in treatment, how to handle difficult emotions, or
afternoon gatherings called “Lunch & Learn” on various topics, such as
genetics & cancer and lymphedema.
We also offer an easy-to-use database called
CancerHelp where members can search for reliable
information about cancer, self-care, clinical trials, support, from data
compiled by the National Cancer Institute.
Through a grant from the local Susan G. Komen for the Cure Madison
Affiliate, this database is updated monthly. This is a great resource to
find specific and reliable information.
 
Our lending Library and
brochure aisle include books, CDs, DVDs, and various community resources.
Come check it out!
