 ilda's Club Northern New Jersey was the 8th affiliate to open and officially opened it's signature red door on April 13, 2000.
Almost every family in northern New Jersey has
confronted cancer. Almost every person in
northern New Jersey has watched a family
member or friend struggle with the fear and
isolation that a cancer diagnosis brings. And
almost every person in that situation would
benefit from a place like Gilda's Club - support will be needed, at some
point, by virtually everyone.
Gilda's Club is an essential complement to
medical care for those living with cancer and
their families and friends, to help them take
control of their lives and learn to live with
cancer, whatever the outcome. It is a place
where people share and learn how to help
themselves by helping others. The combination
of activities through which members form a
cancer support community are what make this
such a unique place. More than 2,000 men, women and children touched by cancer have joined our special community.
Although mental health professionals and other professionals facilitate groups and
activities, the program is member-driven - our
members are the "experts" at living with cancer. |
