...because children get cancer, too!
A childhood cancer diagnosis lasts a lifetime. The information about the late effects of a cancer diagnosis and treatment is rapidly increasing. The National Children's Cancer Society wants to ensure survivors have access to the information. This web site is designed to provide information pertaining to all areas of the survivor's life. The Late-Effects Assessment tool allows you to build an assessment of late effects specific to your diagnosis and treatment.

Free teleconferences offer childhood cancer survivors, their parents and professionals the information they need to know as they transition through life.
