Support Groups
Support Groups offer cancer patients the opportunity to interact, comfort, and encourage one another, and provide emotional support after diagnosis and during the rigors of cancer treatment.
We offer a wide variety of Support Groups and Creative Classes for Men, Women and Adolescents. These Support Groups and Classes are open to cancer fighters, survivors, co-survivors and caregivers. All Groups and Classes are held at the Reynolds Cancer Support House, 3324 South M Street. Emotional groups are lead by a licensed professional. To register for a group or class or mentorship match, please come visit us or call (479) 782-6302 or 1-(800) 262-9917.
