Coborn Cancer Center Program

Hi staff,
I received an email about a program through Coborn Cancer Center to help children of cancer patients learn to identify and express the feelings that they are having during this difficult time in their lives. Children who are between the ages of 6-11 and have a parent or primary caregiver diagnosed with cancer are eligible to participate. If you have a student in your classroom in this situation you may want to view the attached flyer and consider talking to their parent about this program. The program begins January 8th, lasts 6 weeks, and is free of charge. Here is a link you can also share with parents for more information. http://www.centracare.com/specialty_centers/cancer/

Thanks and Happy Holidays! AM
