This is a 3 month support group for students with parents and close family members coping with cancer. Not open to the public.

Starting in October, SHAREing & CAREing will be continuing our partnership with Frank Sinatra School of the Arts. Last spring, at the request of FSSA Assistant Principal of Guidance Jacqueline Pridgen, our Program Manager Merryl Reichbach, LCSW provided counseling to students coping with cancer. Response was so positive that she asked that we offer this service again, and expand it. We will be offering counseling individually and in small peer groups twice per month 10-1:30pm. We will also be working with students on creating a peer education program about cancer that will be offered to health classes at FSSA starting in December.
