Conceptual rendering of the planned Jonell’s Journey Family Support Center. Final design and features may change as the project develops.
Jonell’s Journey is working to build a Family Support Center in Clarksville, Tennessee. It will be a welcoming place where breast cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and their families can find encouragement, education, resources, and community.
Our vision is to bring meaningful support together under one roof, creating a place where families feel seen, valued, and supported throughout their journey.
With the support of individuals, businesses, churches, foundations, and community partners, we can help bring this vision to life.
A breast cancer diagnosis affects more than one person. It touches spouses, children, caregivers, and entire families. Along with treatment, families may face uncertainty, emotional stress, changes in daily routines, and feelings of isolation.
The Jonell’s Journey Family Support Center will provide a place to connect with people who understand, access helpful resources, participate in educational programs, and find moments of peace and encouragement.
We envision a community where patients receive support, survivors remain connected, caregivers feel appreciated, and families know they do not have to face the journey alone.
A warm, inviting space where everyone feels seen, welcomed, and valued.
A dedicated safe space for patients, survivors, and caregivers to share their experiences, heal, build relationships, and encourage one another.
A space for classes and programs designed to support physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
A joyful, welcoming space where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable while their loved ones participate in center programs. Participation and supervision details will be shared as programs are developed.
A gathering place for nourishing meals, cooking classes, and meaningful conversations where families can connect over food and fellowship.
A quiet, peaceful place for prayer, reflection, meditation, and spiritual renewal.
A space for workshops and seminars that empower and connect families with helpful knowledge, practical tools, and community resources.
A dedicated area offering encouragement, information, resources and tools designed especially for those who care for someone they love.
A peaceful outdoor setting for reflection, connection, and community gatherings.
A beautiful, versatile space for events, celebrations, educational events, community programs, and gatherings that strengthen relationships.
Building the Jonell’s Journey Family Support Center is a major investment in the families we serve.
The estimated cost to build the center is $5.5 million. Our building campaign will help move this vision toward a physical home for support, education, encouragement, and connection.
As the project develops, we will share confirmed milestones, fundraising progress, and additional information about the project budget. A detailed budget will clarify which expenses are included in the building estimate and whether additional funding will be needed for furnishings, equipment, program launch, and ongoing operations.

Founder, Jonell’s Journey
“Jonell’s Journey was created from a desire to ‘be what I didn’t have’ and ensure that breast cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and their families have encouragement and support throughout their journey.
The Family Support Center is an extension of that mission. My vision is for someone to walk through its doors and feel welcomed, understood, and less alone. I want caregivers to know their needs matter, children to have a place where they feel comfortable, and families to find a community that cares.
This center will give us a place to bring people together through education, wellness, prayer, fellowship, and meaningful support.
I invite you to help us build a place where hope is nurtured and families are embraced. Together, we can make a lasting impact in our community.”
The center is being planned to support breast cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and their families in Clarksville and the surrounding Middle Tennessee community.
The planned location is Clarksville, Tennessee. The exact site and address will be shared once confirmed.
