CANCER FAMILY NAVIGATORS
Our combined experience as cancer patients and caregivers has helped the ASCF team develop a roadmap of support services for cancer families, from Houston and beyond, who depend on us to guide them through the, often, overwhelming continuum of care. Our trained staff and volunteer navigators are a trusted source to help prepare, advocate, facilitate communications, and be a comforting extension of a cancer family.

CANCER FAMILY CELEBRATIONS
We understand that the cancer journey can make it difficult to balance cancer care, day-to-day tasks and celebrating life’s important milestones. While families may not always have such capacity, each is every bit as important to the family’s overall well-being. Easing those burdens, celebrating the moments and making the memories that mean the most to our families is at the heart of everything we do.
