Narrative

For more than 25 years YWCA has been committed to supporting women with breast cancer through the ENCOREplus® program. This FREE program provides valuable physical and emotional support to any woman diagnosed with breast or reproductive cancer. Throughout the program, women who are undergoing cancer treatment and who are in recovery have access to a unique, combined peer group support and exercise program. 

Support Group: Share your thoughts, information, resources and concerns with other women diagnosed with cancer at monthly facilitated peer support group sessions. The ENCOREplus support group meets virtually every Tuesday at 12:00 PM
