Lindsey previously worked for the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians in their clinic in various roles. One of her main focuses while working at Bad River was to reduce the cancer burden in the community. She thoroughly enjoyed her work and after having a son and taking some time off\, Lindsey felt a pull to return to the good work of reducing cancer burdens in Indian Country. This pull brought Lindsey to AICAF. She chose to work for AICAF because they strive to eliminate cancer burden in Indian Country on a national level. Lindsey feels privileged to work with a talented team of professionals\, and within the Indian Community as a whole. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlexandria Cull-Weatherer\, MPH\nOutreach Specialist\, Wisconsin Cancer Collaborative\nAlexandria Cull Weatherer is an outreach specialist with the Wisconsin Cancer Collaborative.

This group is open to Native survivors\, caregivers\, and relatives who have been affected by cancer. \nIn this group\, we will get to know one another and discuss our experiences with cancer. AICAF staff are grateful to host this and look forward to meeting you. To honor the privacy of our relatives and the sacredness of our time together\, our support circle is not open for observations. Please contact health@aicaf.org if you have any questions. \nNote: If you are interested in learning more about how to facilitate a cancer support circle\, please contact AICAF Cancer Programs Project Manager Misha LaPlante at mlaplante@aicaf.org. \nDates and Times: \nApr 14\, 2022 06:00 PM\nApr 28\, 2022 06:00 PM\nMay 12\, 2022 06:00 PM\nMay 26\, 2022 06:00 PM\nJun 9\, 2022 06:00 PM\nJun 23\, 2022 06:00 PM\nJul 14\, 2022 06:00 PM\nJul 28\, 2022 06:00 PM\nAug 11\, 2022 06:00 PM\nAug 25\, 2022 06:00 PM\nSep 8\, 2022 06:00 PM\nSep 22\, 2022 06:00 PM\nOct 13\, 2022 06:00 PM\nOct 27\, 2022 06:00 PM\nNov 10\, 2022 06:00 PM\nNov 17\, 2022 06:00 PM\nDec 15\, 2022 06:00 PM
