National Cancer Information Center (NCIC)
The National Cancer Information Center provides information and support to those facing cancer 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Trained cancer information specialists are available via phone, live chat, and now video chat, providing accurate, up to date cancer information to patients, family members, and caregivers and connecting them with valuable services and resources.
Patient Lodging Programs
Getting the best care sometimes means cancer patients must travel away from home. This can place an extra emotional and financial burden on patients and caregivers during an already challenging time. The American Cancer Society is trying to make this difficult situation easier for both cancer patients and their families through our Hope Lodge and Extended Stay America Program.
Road To Recovery (Rides to treatment)
Every day, cancer patients need rides to treatment. Some may not be able to drive themselves, and family and friends cannot always help. Our Road To Recovery program provides rides to patients who have no way to get to their cancer treatment.
Reach To Recovery (Breast cancer support)
If you have breast cancer, you may want to connect with someone who knows what you’re feeling – someone who has “been there.” Through our Reach To Recovery website and app, you can match with a trained volunteer who has survived breast cancer.
tlc: Hair loss and mastectomy products
“tlc” is the American Cancer Society’s catalog and website for women coping with the appearance-related effects of cancer. It offers helpful information and affordable products, including wigs, hairpieces, breast forms, mastectomy bras, hats, turbans, mastectomy swimwear, and accessories. All proceeds from product sales are reinvested into the American Cancer Society’s programs and services for patients and survivors.
