ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Spring to Life™ is an annual free program for patients who have been diagnosed with cancer, as well as their families, companions, and caregivers. Healthcare professionals are welcome and encouraged to participate in the afternoon patient-centered sessions.
Each year, patients and their loved ones join national experts, community oncologist/hematologists, and social workers to share stories and improve understanding in an entertaining and supportive environment. The theme of the 2019 program is Hopefulness During Change, Aging, Illness and Loss.
