Support groups and resources (2024)

Search

If you’re coping with a chronic disease — or caring for someone who is — support groups are often the one place where others truly understand what you are experiencing.

The Gerlinger Support Group Room at the Salem Health CHEC provides a comfortable setting for people to gather and share information in groups devoted to everything from cancer support to mental health.

Support groups can provide friendship, compassion, care-giving tips, new ideas — and hope. They also bridge you to local support and resources.
