Cancer Transitions Survivorship Retreat - Moline

It is common to feel many emotions once treatment ends. The post-treatment phase of survivorship requires many things – physical activity, nutrition, a healthy emotional life, and management of physical health. Cancer Transitions® is a free program designed to help cancer survivors transition from active treatment to post-treatment care.

About the Program: Cancer Transitions is aimed at survivors of any cancer diagnosis who have completed active treatment within the last 24 months. This survivorship retreat will be a day full of informative sessions and activities focused on things individuals facing new survivorship may be experiencing. While each session focuses on a specific skill set and topic, critical components such as group support and re?ective exercises are incorporated in every session. The program provides survivors with practical tools and resources to formulate a personal action plan for survivorship beyond their participation in Cancer Transitions.

Breakfast, lunch, and an exercise session included!

Sessions Include:

  • Getting back to wellness
  • Emotional health
  • Eating well and staying active
  • Managing your medical story beyond cancer

Since its inception, CSC’s Cancer Transitions program has demonstrated that both men and women who participate can experience a significant change in their lives, leading to:

  • Less worry about the negative impacts of cancer (47% reduced their worry)
  • More commitment to physical activity (57% increased their physical activity)
  • Better physical and social functioning (nearly all benefited from the program’s support)
