What is Cancer: Thriving & Surviving?
Cancer: Thriving & Surviving is a free evidence-based workshop developed at Stanford University for people living with cancer and those who support them.
Through guided discussion, reflection, and practical skill-building activities, participants learn ways to manage stress, fatigue, difficult emotions, communication challenges, and other everyday aspects of living with cancer.
