The Young Adult Cancer Network offers monthly support groups to those aged 18-30's who have had a history of cancer or who are presently living with cancer. The group provides an opportunity for discussing some of the challenges, hopes and fears and specific concerns of young adults facing cancer in a safe and mutually respectful environment.

Members of the YACN group are invited to participate in ongoing programs such as day retreats, meditation, relaxation, writing and art therapy groups. Callanish has run two week-long YACN retreats and plans to do more in the future.

We are closely connected with Young Adult Cancer Canada and encourage you to check out their retreats and conferences at http://www.youngadultcancer.ca/
