Get Started
Joining Cancer Support Community Is Free and Easy
First, complete our Newcomer Registration Form. Please provide us with your name and basic contact information so you can sign up for events online. When you are part of CSC DC, you have access to all of the support services we offer at no charge. Whether you are living with cancer, or supporting someone who is, we invite you to join us.
Attend a Newcomer Meeting
This is a time to learn about our mission, philosophy, and program. We offer these meetings twice weekly, and you can register via our calendar. When you register, you will be asked to create a login for our online portal if you have not done so already.
Following this meeting, we will ask you to complete a survey called CancerSupportSource™. This will be emailed to you and contains questions about common concerns for those impacted by cancer. After completing this survey, you will receive individualized resources to address your concerns. The results of this survey help our staff guide you to programs and resources that are right for you.
Meet One-on-One
You can schedule a one-on-one meeting with a staff member following the Newcomer Meeting. This is a time to:
- Take a direct role in identifying your needs.
- Identify and review any additional resources.
- Get your questions answered.
- Discuss CancerSupportSource results and identified needs, if applicable.
