Quoting Cancer Survivorship Provider Network’s post below:

“We are so proud of the amount of high quality programming that we provide every month. Take a look at some of our new series for this year.

New Series: Ask The Expert Cancer Rehabilitation Series with Dr. Michael Stubblefield starts on Thursday, February 20th at 5 pm ET and will continues monthly. This CSPN series invites members to submit cases and questions for national clinical experts. The goal of these sessions is to allow our clinical members to gain expertise in the management of oncology supportive care and survivorship issues.

Adventures in AYA Coffee Talk on March 4th at 1 pm ET. Join our co-hosts and Stephanie Samolovitch MSW, SW from Young Adult Survivors United on a discussion around AYA advocacy.

Resource Room Coffee Talk on Monday March 10th at 3 pm ET will feature Tricia Hernandez, MS, the current Director of Community Engagement in LLS Education and Services, where she manages the LLS online patient community and leads AYA services and resources efforts.

Self Mastery Series on Tuesday, March 11th at 11 am ET featuring Kathy Washburn on Type C Behavioral Patterns – what are they and what can you do to address them. In this one-hour masterclass, cancer providers will explore Type C Behavioral Patterns, which are characterized by high compliance, emotional suppression, and a tendency to internalize stress.

Let’s Talk About It: Sexual Health and Cancer Coffee Talk Series, Thursday, March 13th at 2 pm ET. Sexual health is a crucial aspect of overall well-being, yet it is often overlooked in cancer care. Many cancer patients experience significant changes in their sexual health due to treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. These changes can include decreased libido, pain during intercourse, and emotional distress. Despite these challenges, there is a notable lack of knowledge and resources available to address the sexual health needs of cancer patients.

New Series: Cancer Patient and Caregiver Financial Toxicity Coffee Talk Series, Thursday March 27th at 1:30 pm.

After a cancer diagnosis, cancer patients and caregivers face many challenges across various aspects of their lives. One of those is financial and how to manage paying every day expenses amongst mounting out of pocket expenses and potential loss of income from leave of absences from work. This informative session will shed light on what cancer financial toxicity is, understanding how and what cancer patients have to plan for before, during, and after treatment, and insights into the resources and tools that exist to support cancer patients through their journey.

New Series: Advanced Supportive Care Clinical Spotlight Series starts Thursday, April 24th with Dr. Janet Abrahm.
