KNOXVILLE, Tennessee — An organization in Knoxville is making sure cancer patients don't have to fight alone.
Cancer Support Community of East Tennessee's goal is to help patients and their families through the challenges of cancer.
"We always say that community is the most important word in our name and that we're building a community virtually, and hopefully we'll be back in person soon," said Executive Director Beth Hamil.
Even if the meeting rooms may be empty right now, the pandemic is not stopping the center from hosting virtual services through HIPAA-compliant Zoom calls. They focus on emotional, mental and physical health.
