We understand what it’s like to face the unknown.
Cancer Connection’s mission is to provide a haven where people with cancer and their loved ones can learn how to navigate the complicated cancer journey through one-to-one guidance, education, peer support, integrative therapies, and creative programs to strengthen body and spirit.
All of the services and programs at Cancer Connection are offered free of charge.
Cancer Connection offers in-person befriending by appointment.
Please call (413) 586-1642 and press 1 to reach one of our skilled and compassionate befrienders for confidential one-on-one support or to make an appointment. In line with federal and state COVID-19 guidance policies, Cancer Connection is now mask optional. Our Befrienders will, however, always honor a request to wear a mask. All visitors will be asked to complete a Covid symptom screening upon arrival.
