Celebrating National Family Caregivers Month

Year after year, day after day, people with cancer receive invaluable support from their caregivers, who are often devoted members of their family.

November is National Family Caregivers Month, a time to give needed attention to their selfless work. CancerCare honors everything they do - the prescriptions organized, appointments attended, the household chores done, the emotional support given and much more.

CancerCare is proud to offer resources, support and advice to caregivers all year long. My Cancer Circle is a free and easy way to organize support and resources among friends and family.

Help With Clinical Trials

Playing a vital role in improving cancer care, clinical trials can be a big part of an individual's cancer treatment, leading to potential advancements and help for those who join them.

CancerCare's www.myTRIAList.org helps patients learn about and find clinical trials and provides interviews, tutorials and more to explain how valuable they can be. Take a look today.
