Community Education
Community Education connects those impacted by cancer to socioemotional support, educational opportunities, tools and resources, and research updates. This program covers a variety of topics, like nutrition, clinical trials, advocacy, self-care, cancer awareness, and more! We work side-by-side with other organizations to serve cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, educators, and health professionals.
All community education events are currently being held virtually via Zoom.
Our Approach
- Build collaborative communities by proactively sharing information, raising awareness, and discussing shared challenges that arise from being impacted by cancer.
- Spotlight community resources available through our program partners that can help people navigate their experiences with cancer.
- Empower people with information and skills that better enables them to care for themselves and their loved ones.
- Promote lifelong learning for professionals on topics related to cancer support services, awareness, and education.
