Support Services
The Knight Cancer Institute along with community partners, Familias en Accion and Oncology Youth Connection, is offering Cancer Transitions sessions starting on Thursday, May 24, 2012. This six-week program aims to help young adult cancer patients, aged 18-39, transition from active treatment to survivorship. Participants must have completed treatment in the last two years.
Each session focuses on a new area of survivorship, providing information on things like healthy eating, exercising with a busy schedule and taking control of survivorship. We provide tools to work through the emotional and social hurdles faced during the transition after treatment, as well as give AYAs a chance to connect with others.
If you are a survivor, or you know someone who could benefit from this free program, please contact Mindy at 503 494-0446, or email her at buchanmi@ohsu.edu to get more information or to register. Space is limited.
