Supporting Teens In Their Fight Against Cancer with Teen Cancer America

Aired June 9, 2024: The mission of Teen Cancer America is to improve the experience, outcomes and survival of teens and young adults with cancer by providing facilities and programs designed especially for them in hospitals throughout the USA. Teen Cancer America helps hospitals and healthcare professionals bridge the gap between pediatric and adult oncology care and aims to educate and support hospitals and outpatient facilities in the development of specialized units for teens and young adults. The units are a place where the cancer experience is understood and the importance of living life through the cancer journey is nourished. Founded by Pete Townsend and Roger Daltrey of The Who...Lisa Foxx interviewed their Executive Director Simon Davies, and had a very insightful conversation about how much these folks care about helping these young people survive and THRIVE!
