2018 Survey on Work & Cancer We are always on a mission to capture the experiences of patients and survivors so we can understand their changing needs and challenges — and find solutions. One way we get this feedback is from our annual survey, which helps tell the story of work and cancer in the U.S. — the successes and the gaps. This research continues to highlight how valuable work can be after a cancer diagnosis.                     For more details and the full survey infographic, click here. Since 2012, Cancer and Careers has brought 236 people from all 50 states to New York City for this event — and now is your chance to be one of them! Travel scholarships are available for patients, survivors and healthcare professionals to attend our 9th Annual National Conference on Work & Cancer, on June 21st. For more info and to apply, click here.  Already in NYC?
