The issues that young adults face as they undergo cancer diagnosis and treatment are unique. YES! provides a safe, supportive environment to discuss these issues. The group focuses on support, empowerment, and sharing perspectives and resources so that our members do not feel alone as they go through their cancer diagnosis and treatment.
The members of YES! have generally been diagnosed with cancer before the age of 45, however, we don't put constraints on the word 'young.’ If you feel that you can benefit from our group, we welcome you.
Young Empowered Survivors meets once a month in a casual setting to allow members to spend time with others who are going through or have gone through similar experiences. We have a Stage IV Warrior group that focuses on the unique issues that face stage IV cancer patients. In addition, we have an active message board/group for members to share questions, ideas and helpful resources.
To reach us, please call 303-477-2161 or email us at info@youngempowered.org. Or, visit us on myspace at www.myspace.com/youngempowered
A Support Group for Young Adults in All Stages of Cancer Diagnosis, Treatment and Recovery.
If you have cancer, or you know someone with cancer, encourage them to seek emotional and social support. It's as important as medical care, and joining YES! is free of charge.

"I worried that joining a support group would mean sitting around and complaining about the negative aspects of cancer. Instead, I found a group of incredibly strong, positive individuals and a “friends night out” setting in which to share the struggles and victories of my cancer journey."
