I’m a Caregiver
Cancer has a huge impact on caregivers, families, friends, and support systems. For teens and young adults, that may include partners, best friends, parents, siblings, and more.
The Support You Need
You might have questions, worries, or just need someone to remind you to take care of yourself, too. Our team is here to support you as you go through this process together with your loved one. We can also connect you to other skilled counselors at UNC and in the community.
