  • This conference is designed for you—whether you’re a patient, survivor, caregiver, supporter, or healthcare professional. Here’s why it’s worth your time:

    • Real answers to real questions: We’re talking about the things that often get skipped in short clinic visits—side effects, survivorship, emotional health, financial impact, emerging treatments, and more.

    • Top-notch local experts: You’ll hear directly from doctors, specialists, and support professionals who work with cancer patients every day—and who understand what matters most.

    • Relevant to all cancer types: While this event began as a breast cancer conference, it’s now open to everyone affected by any type of cancer.

    • Connection and community: One of the most powerful parts of this event is simply being in the room with others who get it. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or years past treatment, you’re not alone—and you’ll leave reminded of that.

    • Exhibit hall + lunch included: Meet local organizations and vendors, learn about new resources, and enjoy a full catered lunch—all included in your registration.

    • Affordable and accessible: Thanks to our sponsors, tickets are just $25 for survivors and $35 for general admission. That’s a full day of learning, conversation, and support—for less than the cost of a dinner out.
