While Hope & Cope is known for the success of its peer support approach, we know it’s not for everyone.
For this reason, we offer many different ways for you to get the support you need, when you need it most.
Our professional clinical team will meet with you to assess your situation. Then, they will recommend the programs or groups that are best suited to you.
Hope & Cope pioneered the peer support model more than 40 years ago. This approach has helped countless cancer patients find hope throughout their cancer journey.
Our peer support volunteers have lived through the cancer experience. One of them is ready to support you when you need it, no matter the stage of your illness or your state of mind.
You can receive one-on-one support through peer mentors, or be part of support groups to share and hear from others. Reach out to us so a member of our professional staff can help find the best fit for you.
Help you regain strength, balance, and flexibility to cope with some of the side effects of treatment.

Hope & Cope was the first of its kind to use research to develop support programs.
We create and publish our own research, and we partner with hospitals and research institutions to bring the best quality of life for people living with cancer.
Research has always been and remains one of our core values.
Education has always been an essential pillar of Hope & Cope. This was important over 40 years ago, when cancer-related information geared to the general public was hard to find.
It is even more important in our digital age, where there is a glut of information yet not all of it is reliable or credible.
Where we gather to honour people living with cancer, support one another, and celebrate every milestone.
