CancerCare provides a head and neck cancer resource page with information, support-service navigation, publications, workshops, and related resources.
CancerCare provides disease-specific resource pages for people affected by cancer. The head and neck cancer page gathers information and related resources, and CancerCare also offers professional oncology social work support, counseling, support groups, education, financial assistance, and resource navigation through its broader services.
CancerCare describes its support groups as a way for cancer patients, loved ones, and bereaved people to connect with others. Its site says the groups are led by oncology social workers and can connect people over the phone, online, and in person. This is a general cancer support resource, so it was linked across the currently active disease records as a broad support option.
Imerman Angels describes itself as providing free one-on-one cancer support and personalized mentoring for cancer fighters, survivors, previvors, and caregivers. Because the service is broad and cancer-type matching is part of the model, it was linked across the currently active disease records as a general peer-support option.
The Mouth Cancer Foundation provides support for oral cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers, including emotional, financial, and practical assistance.
The Mouth Cancer Foundation describes its support page as comprehensive support for oral cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers. The page metadata mentions emotional, financial, and practical assistance. It was linked to active Tongue Cancer and Throat Cancer records because those diagnoses fall within the oral and head-and-neck cancer support area.
The Oral Cancer Foundation forum page describes an oral cancer support group featuring posts by patients, survivors, and family members supporting those with oral cancer. It was linked to active Tongue Cancer and Throat Cancer records as a closely relevant oral/head-and-neck cancer support forum.
Smart Patients describes itself as an online community for patients and their families. Its head and neck cancer community is a peer-to-peer space for people affected by the disease to learn from other patients and caregivers and discuss experiences related to diagnosis, treatment, and living with cancer.
