Oncology Support Program

The Oncology Support Program is a unique support community for those affected by cancer. Compassionate professionals visit cancer patients while they are in the hospital and offer comprehensive outpatient services to patients and their caregivers in the nurturing environment of the Herbert H. and Sofia P. Reuner Cancer Support House. Our house is perceived as a “home away from home” by cancer survivors and their loved ones.

The Oncology Support Program offers counseling and a variety of support groups. We offer innovative programs in the healing and creative arts, wellness classes, survivorship, nutrition and integrative medicine programs. Volunteers from our community and graduate interns are invaluable assets to our dedicated team.
