The Lymphoma Support Group of Ottawa (LSGO) seeks to work closely with hematologists and other health care professionals involved in treating lymphomas in the Ottawa region. These professionals are invited to speak to the group to provide information on disease mechanisms, current treatment options, research findings and directions, management of the disease and treatment of side-effects. 

The LSGO seeks to advocate for lymphoma patients by providing health care professionals with insights into the shared experiences of LSGO participants, highlighting issues or concerns arising within support group discussions. The group also lobbies more widely to improve the delivery of care and access to services for all lymphoma patients. In addition, various LSGO members, including caregivers, have been sharing their stories to promote awareness and understanding of living with lymphoma.
