An original concept at Gilda's Club, Team Convene reaches out to include everyone in the life of the person with cancer. Your extended family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, clergy and congregation members—and anyone and everyone else you may wish to invite—come to the clubhouse for a special meeting that's just for you.

Is it difficult talking to friends? Family wondering if they're saying "the right thing?" At Team Convene, people start talking. Feelings are explored, hopes and fears aired, questions asked and answered. Information is shared.

Wondering how to get to chemotherapy? Is it hard asking for help or knowing whom to ask? Your customized Team Convene sorts out and assists with these practical matters. Plans are made, tasks assigned. A "Team Point Person" volunteers. We get things going—your team convenes and does it all.
