Welcome to the Breast Cancer Resource Center (BCRC)
The BCRC office has remained closed for the last two years to maintain the health and wellbeing of our clients and staff. We wish nothing more than to see our clients in person and we will continue to review the situation as it changes. For the time being, all employees will continue to work from home, but we will physically close our office at 4807 Spicewood Springs Rd. Our clients can continue to connect with us as they have been for the last two years by calling, texting, and emailing. We will continue our virtual support groups and we’ll revisit in-person groups in collaboration with community partners as it becomes safe to do so. Don’t forget our Facebook groups are a great way to connect with peers.
Newly diagnosed
From the moment you receive a diagnosis, there are so many decisions to make and situations to face. You’d like to know what you can expect.
In Treatment
Treatment for breast cancer has become so complex. Multiple providers, drug therapies, chemo, radiation, surgery; you’d like to know how to sort it all out.
After Treatment
You’ve crossed the finish line. The dust has somewhat settled, but your life will never be the same. You’d like to know what happens now.
Living with Cancer
Breast cancer is part of your life. It isn’t going away and treatment will never end. You’d like to know how to live fully in the face of this disease.
