The transition from treatment to survivorship is an important, and often overlooked, part of the cancer journey.

Whether you have recently completed treatment or are preparing for it to end, this program helps participants understand the emotional and physical realities of life after cancer treatment. Learn how the nervous system responds to stress, explore common post‑treatment experiences, and gain practical tools for navigating survivorship with greater understanding and confidence.
