The Long-Term Follow-Up Clinic at the CHOC Cancer Institute is designed to detect the development of side effects from therapy that can occur years after treatment is completed. Our program is the only one in the Orange County region that provides support to cancer survivors and their families.

There are approximately 70,000 people aged 15-39 diagnosed with cancer every year. For over two decades there has been little or no improvement in survival for this age group. By signing this bill, you are supporting the Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Bill of Rights to be established as a standard for care to meet the needs of this underserved population.

Social networking site designed to end the loneliness and isolation often felt by young cancer patients and young adults.

The National Melanoma Awareness Project is a medical-student run educational outreach program directed at local middle school and high school students. This community service project educates all participants about skin safety and skin cancer with an emphasis on melanoma prevention and self –screening for earlier detection.
