Funded Activity Summary

Almost 5000 adolescents and young adults (AYAs) in Australia were diagnosed with cancer in the last 5 years, and many will survive well into adulthood. Survival does not mean AYAs return to their former state of health. They need support to manage the detrimental effects of their cancer experience - support that is scarce in this country. This project tests a lifestyle program to address this issue. We aim to ensure young people who survive cancer have the same quality of life as their peers.
