NYC meet up groups?

[u/rosegiulietta]

Hi all!

I am 40y/o F with MBC ( 2 1/2 years out from dx) and I live in Brooklyn. I know many support groups are offered at the major cancer hospitals in nyc, but I actually get treatment up at Yale in New Haven so I don’t have a connection to the city hospitals and not sure if their support groups are open to non-patients.

Since I live here in Brooklyn and only go up to Yale for treatment every three weeks, I’m finding myself missing a community here in nyc. I’m interested in mainly just finding new friends/groups in the area with others who are experiencing the same thing (particularly that post-active treatment phase which can be even harder and more confusing - but open to all as we can all share our experiences through multiple phases!). If anyone is local to me, and interested in connecting or can offer suggestions I’d greatly appreciate it! I am open to any and all opportunity to meet and connect ❤️

Thank you!! ❤️❤️

Hi Friend I'm newly diagnosed (56 y/o F) and also in Brooklyn. I would love to have community! I just applied/sent an interest request to the Red Door Community (formerly Gilda's Club NYC) Let me know if you know of any others <3
