The Problem

I am trying to help families cope with the cancer of a family member. I am working to promote wellness for people touched by the disease during each stage of treatment.

Plan of Action

I contribute to the holistic approach to family wellness in cancer care by offering time and compassion to a local children's hospital, a supportive nonprofit organization, and The American Cancer Society. I plan to continue my current volunteer opportunities while presenting ideas for new ways reach out to families. I am currently looking into becoming involved with various group therapies available for coping and bereavement related to cancer. Throughout my educational experience, career, and life I will remain devoted to contributing to this cause.
