We provide care and support for faculty and staff and their family members at the time of a cancer diagnosis and throughout the cancer treatment process. We understand that cancer presents physical, emotional, financial, and spiritual challenges to individuals and their caregivers.
How we help:
- Understanding the resources at the university and the local community
- Counseling to assist with coping with a cancer diagnosis
- Helping individuals cope with the emotional problems that may be made worse by the cancer diagnosis
- Problem solving for financial concerns
- Counseling for caregivers for the social and emotional changes while caring for a loved one
- Caregiver support education
- Survivorship care for the emotional journey following treatment
- Referrals for cancer support groups in the community
