If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer,
deciding what’s next can be overwhelming. ACS CARES™ (Community Access to
Resources, Education, and Support) is a multi-channel program designed to
provide non-clinical navigation support to cancer patients and caregivers.
Through in-person student volunteers and virtual community volunteers, CARES
volunteers equip those facing cancer with curated content, programs, and
services to fit their specific cancer journey.
College/graduate students volunteer at USA Mitchell Cancer Institute to provide people with cancer and caregivers with empathetic, culturally sensitive and inclusive non-clinical navigation support throughout the cancer journey.
