The Survive & Thrive meetup is a time specifically for young adults that have been treated for cancer between the ages of 13-39, to get together. Our fantastic group is made up of survivors whom look to connect with others that have faced similar battles and thrived through it all.
Talking with someone other than a parent, doctor or friend that actually gets what you’ve been through is crucial. Come hang out!
This group is facilitated by Abbie Mauney, AYA Program Manager at Atrium Health Cancer Center.
