Support After a Prostate Cancer Diagnosis: How PROSTAID Calgary Can Help

A prostate cancer diagnosis can be life-changing—not just for you, but for your loved ones as well. Whether you’ve recently received your diagnosis, are undergoing treatment, or are supporting someone through their journey, you don’t have to go through it alone.

That’s where PROSTAID Calgary comes in. For over 30 years, this dedicated community has been offering support, resources, and a safe space for men facing prostate cancer and the people who care about them. Check them out at https://prostaid.org/meetings/

A Place to Connect, Learn, and Feel Understood

Did you know? According to the Canadian Cancer Society, 1 in 8 Canadian men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. It’s a reality that affects countless families, yet many men and their loved ones struggle to find the right information and support.

That’s why PROSTAID Calgary hosts monthly support meetings, free of charge, to help men navigate their diagnosis, explore treatment options, and connect with others who truly understand what they’re going through.

These meetings aren’t just about sitting and listening—they’re a chance to hear from top medical professionals, researchers, and survivors who share the latest information on treatment advancements, early detection, and life after cancer. Recent topics have included:

• The latest breakthroughs in prostate cancer treatment
• Testosterone therapy and its impact on prostate health
• Living well after a prostate cancer diagnosis
• New screening technologies that could change early detection

Special Support for Every Stage of the Journey

Cancer doesn’t just affect the person diagnosed—it also impacts family, friends, and caregivers. That’s why PROSTAID Calgary offers specialized groups beyond its general meetings:

• The Warriors Group – A space for those managing advanced prostate cancer, where you can connect with others facing similar challenges.
• The Wives & Caregivers Group – A support network for the partners, spouses, and family members who play a crucial role in this journey.

If you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, or just need someone who understands, these groups are here to help.

PROSTAID Calgary is more than just a monthly gathering—it’s a community that provides ongoing resources to keep you informed and supported.
