Waterford Place Waterford Place Cancer Resource Center offers services and support, free of charge, to anyone impacted by a cancer diagnosis.

Welcome to Waterford Place Cancer Resource Center where services and support, free of charge, are available to anyone impacted by a cancer diagnosis. For most people, facing this disease is filled with fear, indecision and often, treatment plans that can be physically and emotionally demanding. Waterford Place staff and volunteers aim to provide comforting, understanding and fortifying resources for those in any stage of treatment or survivorship—along with their loved ones. Waterford Place is where help meets hope. Inside Waterford Place, you’ll find a warm, welcoming space that offers an array of information and programs on specific cancer types. Programming focuses on the practical, from what to expect from treatment to how to balance practical concerns such as finances, working, health insurance as well as the emotional side of the disease. Regular lectures from clinical specialists and other health professionals help keep you informed on the latest research and treatment options, and on topics such as how to help caregivers and maintain relationships.

As we stand on New Year’s Eve, we take a moment at Waterford Place to reflect on the year behind us. This past year invited growth, reflection, and moments that asked us to lean on one another.

We witnessed courage in every form: survivors showing up for themselves, supportive partners walking alongside their loved ones, and a community choosing hope even in difficult seasons. We celebrated milestones, deepened relationships, and continued to grow as a place of healing, belonging, and strength.

While we honor the losses and hardships that touched our community, we choose to let the triumphs carry us forward. They remind us why this work matters and how powerful compassion and support can be when shared.

As we step into a new year, we do so grounded in gratitude and propelled by the strength of those we serve. May the lessons of this year guide us, and may our collective victories—both seen and unseen—light the way ahead.

Thank you for being part of the Waterford Place community. Here’s to moving forward together into the new year with hope and intention.
