Professional trained social workers at Miami Cancer Institute at Baptist Health south Florida lead numerous cancer support groups in English and Spanish. Our support groups provide a safe environment where you and your family members can share your concerns and ideas about cancer with others. They focus on a variety of topics, including emotional support, specific diseases, treatments, and common challenges.

Support groups can:

  • Help you feel better, more hopeful, and not so alone
  • Give you a chance to talk about your feelings and work through them
  • Help you with ideas on how to deal with practical problems, such as problems at work or school
  • Help you with ideas on how to cope with side effects of treatment
