The Cancer Support Community Atlanta is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to providing a variety of supportive services for cancer patients and their families in a home-like environment in the heart of Atlanta. We provide support, informative education programs, a variety of gentle stress reduction and exercise classes, and fun social activities. All classes are offered free of charge and are led by seasoned professionals committed to supporting individuals and families in our community facing cancer.

As the Atlanta affiliate of the Cancer Support Community, we are proud to be a part of the largest employer of psychosocial oncology mental health professionals in the US, and the organization that offers a network of personalized services and education for all people affected by cancer. With this large network, we benefit from our headquarters’ Research and Training Center that collects and analyzes data to ensure all of our offerings are evidence-based and proven to make a difference in the lives of people facing cancer.

Since we first hung our shingle in the Atlanta area almost 15 years ago, thousands of lives have been changed through our programs. Thanks to a dedicated staff and team of volunteers, we now offer programs in neighboring Forsyth and Cherokee counties allowing us to reach an even larger population of people who can benefit from our services. We are also proud of our affiliation with Northside Hospital, who, in 2010, was chosen as a prestigious Community Cancer Center by the National Cancer Institute, a division of the National Institute of Health. Over a decade ago, Northside Hospital chose CSC Atlanta to be the provider of their psychosocial oncology services to provide a higher level of support for their patients. Since then, we’ve worked closely with Northside to ensure that their patients are receiving a full spectrum of support programs, while keeping our doors open to everyone affected by cancer, regardless of where they are treated.

History of Our National Organization
In July 2009, The Wellness Community and Gilda’s Club Worldwide joined forces to become the Cancer Support Community.  By helping to complete the cancer care plan, the Cancer Support Community continues to optimize patient care by providing essential, but often overlooked, services including support groups, counseling, education and healthy lifestyle programs. Today, the Cancer Support Community provides the highest quality emotional and social support through a network of nearly 50 local affiliates, more than 100 satellite locations and online.
