The Breast Cancer Survival Center (BCSC) is a not-for-profit
organization founded in 1999, which provides post-treatment education
and support for breast cancer survivors and their families. BCSC
is the only program in the state of Connecticut devoted exclusively to
post-treatment issues, and operates at facilities generously provided
by Norwalk Community College and satellite locations.
Among
the services BCSC provides are support and discussion groups, a buddy
program for doctors' appointments and mammograms, a quarterly
newsletter, a special speakers series featuring experts in the field of
cancer and related topics, awareness events, weekend and day retreats,
and a resource library.
BCSC is open to any breast cancer survivor no matter where or how long ago treatment took place.
Since
the Breast Cancer Survival Center began offering services in September
1999, more than 2000 survivors and family members have participated in
our programs.
