Kid Support-RSVP (CANCELLED)

Saturday, October 21 ● 9:30 AM-NOON

Kid Support^TM is an evidence-based program created for families affected by cancer that is designed to provide age-appropriate information about cancer, help express difficult feelings, and increase coping skills and support systems. Facilitators use developmentally-appropriate content and activities such as art, games, poetry, body movement, and music. Parents/caretakers learn ways to talk to children about cancer, answer hard questions, and how to engage outside support systems.
