Carolyn Taylor, Founder and Executive Director of Global Focus on Cancer, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Excited to share this article from Boston University spotlighting the Stronger Together pilot and research around peer support in Vietnam. A heartfelt thank you to BU for highlighting this important work and its impact on cancer care.
Global Focus on Cancer (GFC) is proud to have led this initiative, working closely with our partners like Phuong Thao D. Le, to develop and implement a program that connects patients through peer support, addressing the emotional and psychosocial needs often overlooked in cancer care.
This pilot demonstrates the power of collaboration and the critical role of person-centered care in improving outcomes and quality of life for people affected by cancer.
