Overview

A blood cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming, but no one should have to navigate it alone. We are excited to announce the expansion of our Coach Program, now offering one-on-one peer mentorship across all blood cancers—including leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and MPNs. Hosted by program leads Roz Hite and Maria Sahagun, this welcoming webinar introduces how our expanded initiative connects patients and care partners with trained, compassionate coaches who understand the day-to-day realities of treatment, survivorship, and emotional well-being.

During this session, you’ll hear firsthand from a panel of dedicated coaches and coachees as they share their personal experiences and the practical difference peer mentorship has made in their lives. Discover how a coach can help you find reliable resources, manage treatment questions, and regain a sense of control from day one. Whether you are looking for personal guidance along your own health journey, supporting a loved one, or interested in giving back as a volunteer coach, this event will show you how to tap into an empowering network built by patients, for patients.
