For those new to Gilda’s Club, attending a Beyond the Red Door: Orientation is required before joining a weekly and/or monthly support group. These take place every week and you can register at www.gildasclubchicago.org/calendar.
If you have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, we invite you to participate in our monthly hybrid support group held both at the Downtown Clubhouse (537 N. Wells, Chicago) and virtually. This group provides a supportive environment for discussions on topics including treatment options, quality of life, incontinence, intimacy concerns, fear of recurrence and more as well as community connections. Participants are encouraged to include their caregivers. All the services, including support groups, offered at Gilda’s Club Chicago are provided without any cost.
Facilitators:
Jim Schraidt
Clint Zavakos, LCPC
Jeff Albaugh, PhD, APRN, CUCNS
Gilda’s Club is a place where those whose lives have been impacted by cancer, as well as their families and friends, can feel they are part of a welcoming community. Gilda’s Club Chicago’s weekly and monthly support groups are facilitated by a licensed mental health professional, medical professional and/or community partner. Weekly and monthly support groups are intended for adults. To help ensure a meaningful group experience, we’re introducing a new policy for monthly groups: if a group has fewer than the minimum number of required registrants 24 hours prior, that session will be cancelled. We encourage you to register early to help keep groups running as scheduled. Registration for support groups must be done through the online calendar.
