About
We believe that no one should have to face cancer alone. Cancer Support Community Central Indiana received a grant from Bloomington Health Foundation to launch new cancer support programs in South Central Indiana. Through this grant and partnership with Bloomington Health Foundation, CSCSCI is now coordinating the Hoosiers Outrun Cancer event. We are partnered with IU Health to provide supportive non-clinical services to cancer patients and survivors as well as their family members and care givers. Our office in Bloomington is located at the corner of west 3rd street and Landmark. Our mission is to ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action, and sustained by community. So that no one faces cancer alone.
