University of Illinois Cancer Center Survivorship Lecture Series
The Cancer Center Survivorship Program at the UI Health Mile Square Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) provides patients with tools and resources to live full lives during and after cancer care. Survivorship care begins at the time of a cancer diagnosis and is available to any adult with a cancer diagnosis. The program aims to address all aspects of a patient’s health care needs while coordinating care among primary care providers, oncologists, and specialists.
The Young and A Survivor (YAAS) program has identified key lectures from this series to feature, focusing on topics that are particularly relevant to young women diagnosed with breast cancer.
