Support Services
YWCA Princeton’s Breast Cancer Resource Center (BCRC) offers support services for breast cancer patients and survivors only. Before enrolling in any of the BCRC programming, you must first complete an intake with one of our experienced, professional staff members. Please call (609) 497-2100 x 349 to make arrangements.
Support Groups
We believe no one should face breast cancer alone. Our groups are a safe and comfortable place to share, be uplifted, exchange ideas, get informed, gain daily strength, explore handling different situations, embrace one another, and move forward in your personal journey.
Support groups will continue to be held mostly virtually. If groups do meet in-person, there will be an option for members to join virtually as well.
An ongoing meetup for patients and survivors of stage I, II or III breast cancer. Monthly meetings will help participants cope with the immediate and long-term effects of breast cancer and its treatment. Discussions will focus on the issues of importance to those in the group, and may include managing hair loss, fatigue, chemo-brain, body image, employment issues, while also focusing on practical ways to move beyond breast cancer and return to wellness. Newly diagnosed women will bond with others at various stages of their journey.
