A Whole New Way To Look at Surviving Breast Cancer
Who Should Attend?
All breast cancer survivors ranging from the recently diagnosed to the person who is a 30-year survivor may attend. Once you have been diagnosed with breast cancer, you are immediately a part of a group of people who are extremely loyal and who intimately understand what you are going through.
When Do We Meet?*
The group meets every third Monday at Jocko's in their meeting room from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
*Time and date may change based on preference of the group.
Is There a Cost?
The group is free, but if you would like to order food at Jocko's, you pay for your own.
