Welcome to TWC-Foothills

Founded in 1982, The Wellness Community (TWC) is an international non-profit organization providing free support, cancer education and hope. The Wellness Community-Foothills (TWC-F) is one of 24 chapters in the U.S based on the core philosophy of the Patient Active Concept: “… someone who sees him or herself as Patient Active becomes part of the fight for recovery” and benefits through their participation and increased knowledge. How you participate, connect with and educate yourself is up to you - be it online, a class, a weekly group – or combination. Learn More>
