As a childhood, adolescent, or young adult cancer survivor, you’ve been through an experience that is rare and difficult for many to comprehend. Inevitably, that experience changed you — in ways you recognize and in others that will become more apparent over time.
Learn about core survivorship issues by working through our free courses on long term follow-up care, physical and mental late effects, and navigating young adulthood as a cancer survivor.
These three courses are designed for young adult survivors of childhood or adolescent cancer and can be worked through at your own pace on your own time. Learn more here or jump right into a course:

In addition to these educational courses for survivors, Children’s Cancer Cause supports a wide range of additional programs and policies that aim to address the medical and psychosocial care needs of pediatric cancer survivors.
Our College Scholars Program and Survivorship Champion’s Prize are programs made possible through generous seed funding from the Stewart Family.

“Because I had no idea how to advocate for myself and ask the right questions, I ended up putting up with a slew of side effects that could have been prevented and managed if I had the information to plan preemptively, and if I had the confidence to self-advocate. I was unsure of how to avail myself of the support and resources offered to me.”
