About Lashondra Love, LGSW, LMSW

Lashondra Love is deeply committed to the work of Cancer Support Community (CSC), having previously served as a Program Associate where she supported our past two program directors. During her time in this role, Lashondra gained invaluable experience working in Wards 7 and 8 in D.C., which sparked her passion for the intersection of social work and cancer care. Her professional journey has always centered on providing emotional, social, and practical support to individuals navigating the complexities of cancer, both personally and professionally.
Since moving to the DC metro area in 2016, Lashondra has continued to expand her expertise, most recently as a Supervisor at BTST Services in Lanham, MD, where she oversaw rehabilitation services and worked closely with clients to ensure their goals aligned with individualized care plans. Throughout her career, Lashondra has been driven by the belief that cancer care goes beyond medical treatment—it’s about providing holistic, compassionate support to the whole person.
Outside of her professional life, Lashondra enjoys spending quality time with her family, traveling, and helping others connect to the resources they need to thrive. Her personal and professional experiences have shaped her into a trusted, warm, and relatable advocate for individuals impacted by cancer.
