Our Work

Our Impact

Our young people are counting on us. Let’s show them we care.

Many hospitals lack specialized programs or services dedicated to helping teenagers and young adults dealing with cancer. That's why we step in to help hospitals create evidence-based programs that are just right for these young individuals. Our programs are specially designed for their age and cater to their specific needs, providing the support they deserve.

By adopting “Cancer Under 40" Powered by Teen Cancer America as the name for our health system program, we are reflecting the growing focus on cancer in people in their 20s and 30s, who remain among the most vulnerable when diagnosed with cancer.
