A new national study of support for young women survivors of breast cancer has begun in January 2011 and will be enrolling participants through the Fall of 2012. In this randomized control trial we are testing the effectiveness of educational support and professional or peer-led online support groups.

Everyone who takes part in this study will receive a free workbook that gives information about coping after cancer and a relaxation CD. Register today at CancerChatCanada.ca or call us at 1-800-663-3333 ext 4966.
