About UsIn 1988, Breast Cancer Support Services was formed by two women who were diagnosed with breast cancer. Both women realized that there was a great need of support for women in the Burlington, Oakville, Hamilton and surrounding areas. As a result, the two women decided to start the Breast Cancer Support Services organization. BCSS is a self-help organization created by women for anyone who has concerns about breast cancer or general breast health. BCSS is also a truly unique organization as it is the only support centre in the Hamilton, Halton area which deals specifically with breast cancer. BCSS is a volunteer-based centre. Our heart and soul is composed of the women and men who have already walked in the shoes of the newly diagnosed and who understand their need for compassion and support. We provide current information and education on early detection, various treatment options and the many ways of learning to successfully manage the effects of breast cancer. Our goal, is to be encouraging, enlightening and empowering. Our center is located at 695 Brant Street in Burlington. You can drop in, phone for support or utilize the free services offered at BCSS. In addition, we provide one on one support , or you can attend our support groups, experience one of our holistic services and programs, or you can simply visit our Serenity Garden which is designed for all Cancer survivors. The "C" Word Means More Than Cancer Courage It’s Time to Change the Meaning. |
