Cancer and Careers’ 11th annual Midwest Conference on Work & Cancer will be held online on Friday, March 22nd, 2024. Registration is now open and we would love to have you join us for a day of learning and making connections.
This free, daylong is open to patients, survivors, caregivers, healthcare professionals, advocates, employers, HR professionals and more to explore the complexities of balancing treatment and recovery with employment.
We know that not everyone has access to reliable technology in their home, which is why for this event we offered our Technology Assistance Program (TAP). This application-based program for cancer patients and survivors awards (1) laptop (such as a Chromebook or similar device) to a limited number of recipients. Applications will open in the coming months, if you'd like to learn more about the program and place yourself on a list for future opportunities please click here.
