Association of Cancer Care Centers’ Post

June is National #CancerSurvivor Month, honoring those who are in remission or are currently facing a cancer diagnosis. As of 2022, there are 18.1 million survivors in the US. By 2040, it is estimated that the number of survivors will reach 26 million. Most survivors (69%) have lived at least 5 years since diagnosis, and 18% have surpassed 20 years. Cancer #survivorshipresearch is crucial, especially research focused on long-term health, psychosocial well-being, and addressing health disparities. Many survivors endure challenges like cardiac issues, chronic pain, and financial toxicity. Survivorship research aims to improve quality of life. In honor of #NationalCancerSurvivorMonth, support cancer survivors by advocating for research. The impact of cancer doesn’t end at remission.
