Education & Resources

At Gilda’s Club Middle Tennessee, we provide access to a wide range of educational resources. In addition to having dedicated resource specialists on staff responding to resource requests, we maintain a comprehensive and current Resource Library on site, which has hundreds of books and print materials on a variety of topics, including:

  • Specific cancer diagnoses
  • Parenting & caregiving through cancer
  • Managing side effects
  • Coping with the cost of care, financial aid, and working with cancer
  • Survivorship & post-treatment
  • Death, dying, grief & loss
  • Integrative health
  • Mind-body Health & Wellness
  • Cooking & Nutrition
  • Inspirational and Spiritual

Feeling overwhelmed and not sure where to start? Let us help. We are always happy to find additional resources and help with referrals. GCMTN is a hub for cancer-related information in both the Middle Tennessee area as well as nationally.
