Cancer Support Community South Bay (CSC South Bay) provides free support services for those affected by cancer and their loved ones in the South Bay, Long Beach, and Orange County. Programs are developed from evidence-based psychosocial oncology and all services are offered completely FREE OF CHARGE. With any cancer diagnosis come feelings of hopelessness and social isolation. The mission of CSC South Bay is to uplift and strengthen people impacted by cancer by providing support, fostering compassionate communities, and breaking down barriers to care.
Since 1987, CSC South Bay has provided psychosocial and emotional support to over 24,000 cancer patients and their loved ones. Research has shown that this type of support reduces isolation, improves quality of life, and is an important supplement to one’s medical treatment plan. We offer over 200 programs, services, classes, and workshops per month, all completely free of charge. This support is integral to cancer patients in active treatment, those returning to wellness post-treatment and long-term survivors, as well as their family members, caregivers and other loved ones, ages 5 and up. We work to empower our participants through education, resources, and community, so that no one faces cancer alone. Watch the video below to learn more about the impact of social services.
Our PIHRA South Bay community is proud to support CSC South Bay through our volunteer efforts and fund raising, including at the annual Tour De Pier, Celebrate Wellness and Holiday Gingerbread house events.
