LGBTQIA+ Women's Cancer Support Group

Thorne Harbour Health is launching a new peer support group for LGBTQIA+ women who have been affected by cancer. This group offers a welcoming, inclusive and confidential space to connect with others who understand the unique experiences and challenges of navigating cancer as an LGBTQIA+ woman. Whether you are newly diagnosed, currently undergoing treatment, in recovery or living with advanced cancer, you are welcome to join. The group is open to people affected by all types of cancer and at any stage of their journey. Facilitated by two peers with lived experience of cancer, these sessions provide an opportunity to share experiences, build connections and find support within a community that understands. This inaugural session marks the beginning of what we hope will become a monthly peer support group, creating an ongoing space for connection, understanding and community. Whether you feel comfortable sharing your story or would simply prefer to listen, you're welcome to participate in whatever way feels right for you.
