Gilda's Club South Florida

For over 20 years, Gilda's Club South Florida has built a vibrant community of cancer patients, survivors, and their loved ones. With any cancer diagnosis come feelings of hopelessness and social isolation. We're on a mission to change that. It's our goal at Gilda's Club to ensure cancer patients don't have to face it alone.


We offer programs at no cost to cancer patients and their families. Our evidence-based programming includes support groups, healthy lifestyle workshops, social activities, educational lectures, and information on community resources for adults, children, and teens. We build community, so we can take on cancer together.

We focus on providing psychosocial support to complement medical treatments to nurture every part of a patient as they learn, grow, and recover. Our program is made up of five core components: support groups, education, healthy lifestyle, social connections and resources and referrals. As an affiliate of the worldwide Cancer Support Community, our program comes with more than 30 years of expertise behind it, a one-of-a-kind, evidence-based program of social and emotional support.

The goal of our program is simple: to support a holistic, patient-active approach to wellness to improve overall health outcomes.

At Gilda's Club, you're more than your cancer. You're a member of a diverse and welcoming community of people who understand what you're going through. You're you at your very best.
