Social Opportunities
For many, the cancer experience can be socially isolating. But not here at CSC!
At CSC, you can relax with family and friends who welcome your company, understand what you’re going through, and really want to know the answer when they ask how you’re doing. We hope you’ll join us at any of the many FREE social events offered at CSC.
