About
This Free Support Group, Located in the San Fernando Valley:
is open to women who not only face the challenges of parenting, but do so during and following treatment for cancer. This is a great way to learn current, credible information and tips on coping with the day-to-day difficulties for women under these circumstances. We offer support both online through our website, as well as through regular meetings. This group meets every second Saturday of the month. It is open to both working and non-working women. Children are welcome. Please contact Marta Blum at 818-326-0675 for more information or email marta@mommyswithcancer.org.
The group meets the 2nd Saturday of every month in a private home in Northridge.
