Cancer Support Services

The cancer experience is life-changing for patients and their loved ones. Cancer patients need support before, during and after their treatment. Our goal is to provide compassionate and professional care to individuals affected by cancer, promote the healing process and treat the whole person. Meet our director and learn more about our program.

What we do
We have a team of highly trained social workers, dietitians, chaplains and counselors. They work with patients, family members and loved ones to help manage cancer treatment. Most of our services are free for Washington Cancer Institute patients.
