Icon EQ - Equity in Cancer Care On Friday, June 25, we gathered virtually for the second annual Livestrong Icon EQ, where we discussed how Digital Literacy + Building Trust Through Technology can be used to foster equity in cancer care. One of the session's highlights was the opening session with Black Cancer podcast host, TED Talk speaker and keynote, Jodi-Ann Burey.  "It's a seductive throught to solve big hairy goals through technology, but while techonology can help make innovative solutions efficient and scalable, it can efficiently scale our mistakes, our misunderstandings and racial bias."

REGISTER FOR TD FIVE BORO   REGISTER FOR NY MARATHON SOLUTIONS Know Your Options A "New" Old Avenue to Consider: Complementary + Alternative Therapies Today, approximately 40% of survivors in the United States use at least one complementary or alternative therapy during their cancer journey. While there is growing interest in these therapies' effectiveness in cancer treatment and side effect management, it is important to educate yourself on your options. Join us as we explore the 5 types of complementary and alternative therapies: mind-body therapies, biologically based practices, manipulative, and body-based practices, biofield therapy, and whole medical systems. These diverse options approach the body differently, but they all focus on treating the whole body and not just specific symptoms or disease.
