We want women facing the chronic condition of cancer survivorship to get the support and guidance they deserve.
Transforming the approach to the intersection of mental health and survivorship support
Crises are unavoidable and full of elements that are out of our control. But how we approach a crisis or new diagnosis can be controlled. Practical peer support and education developed in collaboration with clinical experts are critical elements of our approach at Living After Crisis. Our goal is to meet women in their place of need while creating resources and tools that bridge the gaps between clinicians, care partners, patients, and any woman facing the chronic condition of survivorship.
A modern approach
It’s essential that the women we serve get practical, accessible, expert education and support, which takes full advantage of the innovations and advancements in technology, education, and coaching. We use multimedia tools and techniques designed around our community’s needs.
Amplifying Voices for Change
Each person's journey from survivor to advocate is unique, yet many face common barriers. We often hear from individuals who are passionate about creating change but feel uncertain about where to begin. They have powerful lived experiences to share but aren't sure how to translate them into effective advocacy. The financial burden of attending advocacy events in Washington, D.C., and other locations can also make these opportunities out of reach for many individuals and small nonprofits.
Every voice matters and is essential in shaping the future of healthcare and support systems. Advocacy takes many forms – from sharing your story with policymakers to supporting local initiatives, participating in research studies, and mentoring others. By breaking down barriers to participation and providing comprehensive training and support, we're building a more inclusive and accessible advocacy landscape where every survivor can create meaningful change.
