The Cancer Care Fund, administered by the Cancer Care Program at Cooley Dickinson Hospital, is available to patients and their families who have a specific financial hardship as a result of a cancer diagnosis or treatment.

This fund also enables the Cancer Care Program to provide free cancer screening clinics, survivorship programs and community education programs to address prevention and early detection related to site-specific cancers.

Typically, Cooley Dickinson hosts screening clinics in May and October. For more information, call the Cancer Care Program office at (413) 582-2028 or e-mail the Cancer Care Program Director.
