Financial Assistance

Help with the cost of care

The financial burden of cancer treatment can be overwhelming. Several organizations and programs exist to help offset medical costs, travel expenses for treatment, and other financial challenges:

  • Hospital social workers and patient navigators can connect you with financial assistance programs specific to your situation.
  • Pharmaceutical patient assistance programs may provide medications at reduced or no cost for qualifying individuals.
  • Non-profit organizations often offer grants for treatment- related expenses such as transportation, lodging, and childcare.

Emotional Support

Caring for your mental health

A cancer diagnosis affects more than physical health. Anxiety, depression, fear, and isolation are common — and valid — responses. Seeking emotional support is not a sign of weakness; it is a vital part of overall well-being.

  • Counseling and therapy with professionals experienced in oncology can help you process complex emotions and develop coping strategies.
  • Support groups — both in-person and online — connect you with others who understand what you are going through.
  • Online communities offer 24/7 access to peer support, shared experiences, and a sense of belonging when you need it most.
