For Patients & Families

Online Communities

Join online conversations about living with cancer by signing up for Dana-Farber CancerConnect. You can safely express your thoughts, pose questions, voice concerns, or just read what others have to say.

We have partnered with CancerConnect, a platform of online communities, to bring you into a circle of other cancer patients, survivors, family members, and friends. By joining this community, you can see how others are coping with a challenging disease.
