Kids need more than medicine to heal...
The hospitals have a child's medical treatment covered... but when a child is diagnosed with cancer, the entire family needs support to carry them through. Until no parent has to hear the words, "Your child has cancer," Circle of Care will be here with programs and services that exist to meet the unique and challenging needs a family faces throughout their child's cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Mission: Circle of Care provides practical, emotional, and financial support to families of children, adolescents, and young adults facing a pediatric cancer diagnosis. We believe that the path to healing extends beyond medicine, and we offer services tailored to address the distinct and demanding non-medical challenges families encounter throughout their entire journey with pediatric cancer.
Vision: To ensure that no family faces the financial or emotional burden of pediatric cancer alone. We are committed to providing comprehensive, coordinated support to relieve families' emotional strain and financial toxicity so they can focus on caring for their child and their family.
