Parent Support

Throughout the year CURE offers educational programs on subjects of interest to families who have had a child in treatment for cancer or blood disorders. Meetings are usually held in the Mark Dillon Friends and Family Room at the CURE Office, and childcare is generally available with an advance reservation.

Information about events is posted on the CURE Calendar, and are listed in our newsletter. For more information about upcoming events or special programs please contact Linda, CURE’s Director of Programs.

Bereavement Support Group

Each month, this group meets in the Mark Dillon Friends and Family Room. This group is specifically designed for parents and family members who have lost a child to cancer. Led by two parent volunteers, this is a place to talk openly about the loss of a child and to receive support.

All support group meeting times and places will be posted on the CURE Calendar.

For more information about the parent support groups please email the CURE Director of Programs

Family Events

During the year, CURE holds numerous events for families of children with cancer.  Events vary and include an annual Holiday Party, a Cancer Survivors Day Celebration and a Fall Fun Day.  Each September, a  Remembrance Ceremony is held in our Children's Memorial Garden to celebrate the lives of the children we've lost. These events help families know that they are not alone. If you would like more information about a specific event, please email
Linda, Director of Programs.
