Impact Your Community by Helping Patients Fight Cancer
Coping with cancer is one of life's greatest challenges. Can you imagine the added stress of not having health insurance to pay for treatment, or having to choose between medicine and groceries for your family? Imagine being too weak to walk, yet unable to afford a wheelchair or walker.
Sobreviviendo El Cáncer/Surviving Cancer Program helps cancer patients who are at risk of failing to adhere to their treatment plan because of financial difficulty. Through this program, patients and their families receive on-going counseling and crisis intervention to overcome psychosocial and financial difficulties. Thanks to an extraordinary UMC social worker named Maria Luisa Licon who established the program, thousands of cancer patients in El Paso have received help at a critical time in their lives.
