CancerCare offers cancer support groups for patients, loved ones, and people who have lost a loved one, led by oncology social workers.
CancerCare describes its support groups as a way for cancer patients, loved ones, and bereaved people to connect with others. Its site says the groups are led by oncology social workers and can connect people over the phone, online, and in person. This is a general cancer support resource, so it was linked across the currently active disease records as a broad support option.
CancerCare provides disease-specific resource pages for people affected by cancer. The vaginal cancer page gathers information and related resources, and CancerCare also offers professional oncology social work support, counseling, support groups, education, financial assistance, and resource navigation through its broader services.
Imerman Angels describes itself as providing free one-on-one cancer support and personalized mentoring for cancer fighters, survivors, previvors, and caregivers. Because the service is broad and cancer-type matching is part of the model, it was linked across the currently active disease records as a general peer-support option.
OCRA describes its patient page as support and information for gynecological cancers. The page specifically references ovarian, cervical, vaginal, vulvar, uterine, and endometrial cancer, along with care support. It was linked to the currently active gynecologic cancer records that match those disease areas.
Smart Patients describes itself as an online community for patients and their families. Its vaginal cancer community is a peer-to-peer space for people affected by the disease to learn from other patients and caregivers and discuss experiences related to diagnosis, treatment, and living with cancer.
