Our Community Voices program gives families the opportunity to share their experience, express gratitude, and help others understand what it means when families can stay together during a child’s treatment.
When you share your story, you play an important role in inspiring community support that helps provide a place to stay, meals, and care for families during their child’s treatment.
There are many ways for families to get involved, from speaking at events and sharing your story on our website to participating in media interviews, creating artwork, and more.
There’s no set commitment, just the opportunity to share your experience in a way that feels right for you.
Explore the options below to see how you can share your story. When you’re ready, share a few details about your experience, and we’ll connect you with the opportunities that feel right for you.
