Hanover Area Breast Cancer Support Group Meeting
The Hanover Area Breast Cancer Support Group will hold their monthly meeting
on Monday, July 20, 2009 at 7:00 PM at LifeChanges Boutique. LifeChanges
is located at 400 York St., in the Hanover Community Health & Education
Building.
The Hanover Area Breast Cancer Support Group (HABCSG) was started in 1991
by Hanover resident Jane Rice. At that time, when Jane was traveling through
her own journey with breast cancer, she had no one to turn to for support
or encouragement. Women did not know how to talk about their experiences,
and even if they wanted to, they did not know where to go to meet other
women in similar situations. Jane made it her mission to change that.
She provided a meeting place, a listening ear, and a shoulder to lean
on for other area women going through cancer. She has personally visited
with and helped hundreds of women understand their diagnosis, navigate
their treatment options, and learn how to live as a cancer survivor. Jane
has facilitated this group since its inception and continues in this role
today. Diana Klunk, a breast cancer survivor since December, 2006 is the
group’s current co-facilitator.
From the beginning, the Hanover Area Breast Cancer Support Group has provided
hundreds of women with the comfort of knowing that other women have walked
in their shoes and survived, that there are friends to lean on when you
need those extra words of encouragement, and that there IS life after
breast cancer!
Whether you have just been diagnosed with breast cancer, or if you have
been a survivor for many years, you are invited to join this diverse group
of women and share in the knowledge, experience, love and support that
the Hanover Area Breast Cancer Support Group provides. Our doors, and
our arms, are always open to welcome you.
Meetings are held the 3rd Monday of each month at 7:00 PM at LifeChanges
Boutique, 400 York St. Hanover, PA 17331.
(time and location subject to change due to special events)
