Together, we create and deliver impactful, no-cost programs and front-line services both at the Hub at 1500 Alta Vista (Maplesoft-Jones Centre) and within the community.

Cancer System Navigation
Navigating Complexity
Our flagship Cancer System Navigation program bridges the gap between medical care and community-based non-medical care for individuals impacted by cancer, their families and caregivers. Cancer System Navigators provide free personalized guidance and resources, whether you are newly diagnosed, in treatment, or beyond. Our navigators can help connect you to services for practical support, mental health, peer support, informational resources and workshops, and other supportive cancer care programs.
