The Wellness Community, Valley/Ventura

Our mission is to help people with cancer and their loved ones enhance their health and well-being by providing a professional program of emotional support, education and hope. Our goal is to help as many people as possible recover to the fullest extent possible.

Description:
We provide a variety of means through which cancer patients can actively participate in their fight for recovery: Workshops, Support Groups for Cancer participants, Family Groups, Networking groups, Yoga, Stress Reduction, Visualization, Chi Gong, and a Kids Circle.

History:
We opened our doors at this site in 1991. Our current Program Director, Marty Nason was the co-founder. An anonymous donor decided to give a substantial gift: a home like setting where we are now located. Since our doors opened we have served more than 10,000 people, reminding the community that the only way to fight cacer is together.
