Support groups
Facing the challenges of cancer can leave you feeling overwhelmed, frightened, and alone. A support group can help by providing a place to discuss your feelings, share information, and talk about coping with cancer. Online social support tools are another way to get support and stay in touch with friends, family, and other patients and caregivers.
For your safety, we have temporarily canceled all in-person patient events. If you have any questions about a specific event, please reach out to the Resource Center at (206) 606-2081 or email the Patient and Family Resource Center at patientresourcectr@seattlecca.org.
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center support groups
All Fred Hutch support groups are free and are facilitated by Fred Hutch staff. Groups are open only to Fred Hutch patients and their family members and caregivers.
Online social support tools
Fred Hutch has teamed up with CarePages, CaringBridge, and CancerConnect to help patients and caregivers use the web to communicate with friends, family, and other patients and caregivers while going through treatment.

CaringBridge is your free, personal, and private journal, guestbook, and photo album—all in one place. Share your CaringBridge website with your friends and family.

CancerConnect allows you to connect with fellow cancer patients and survivors. CancerConnect forums are moderated by Fred Hutch patient navigators.
