For everyone living with a brain tumor

A steady guide through a confusing time

You might be juggling treatment with school, a new job, parenting, or figuring out who you are. We recognize how different brain tumors look in this stage of life and help you find medical information, emotional support, and a community that feels closer to your world.

For Families

Support for Parents, Hope for Kids

When your child is diagnosed, finding answers can feel impossible. We listen to your fears and questions, then help you sort through options for care, treatment, and everyday life. Whether you need information, school support, or just someone to talk things through with, we are here for your whole family so you can focus on what matters most: your child.

Cancer in the middle of growing up is different

A brain tumor in your teens, 20s, or 30s hits school, work, friends, dating, and plans for the future all at once. We understand how complicated that feels. Our team connects you with age aware resources, peers, and guidance so you do not have to sort through it alone.

My navigator was a steady presence as we faced my son’s grade 4 glioblastoma recurrence. She helped me advocate, keep communication moving, and ask the right questions. Her guidance led to a new medication and helped us sort through difficult options.
