About
Our Mission: Empowering individuals and families impacted by cancer through education and support services.
Let’s Honor Her Life and the Courage of All Like Her
The tears still involuntarily flow at the thought of Michelle’s passing; but from the pool of tears has come a mission of service to make it better for others touched by this unrelenting disease. Family, friends, and the community have come together and created a mission to serve our community. Her parents say that more than once they have wished the treatment would have started sooner. But bitter disappointment must be given up and replaced with positive action. Michelle needed a resource center where she could go for help in coping with her challenges. Her parents, family and friends have started one in her memory so others will have an opportunity to get the help they need —it is called Michelle’s Place.

At Michelle’s Place Cancer Resource Center, we provide comprehensive services designed to enhance your well-being throughout your cancer journey. Our offerings include behavioral health support, diverse support groups, and rejuvenating practices such as Reiki, Yoga, and Tai Chi. Additionally, we offer engaging creative arts, sewing, and crafting classes. Our holistic programs are tailored to address your wellness needs at every stage of your journey.
