The Wellness Community

Established in 1982, The Wellness Community (TWC) is an international nonprofit organization dedicated to providing free support, education and hope to people with cancer and their loved ones.  A walk through their website will find extensive resources for both patients dealing with cancer and those that join them in their struggle.  Links to professionally-led support groups, educational workshops, nutrition and exercise programs are only some of the many tools available online.

The Wellness Community will be regularly contributing articles, sharing their expertise in areas such as education, nutrition, and exercise to strengthen and support those caregivers and families touched by cancer.
