Adolescent & Young Adult Cancer (AYA) Week
The first week of April is Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer Awareness Week. This annual awareness week is an opportunity to shine a light on the unique challenges that teen and young adult cancer patients and survivors face.
Currently, 500,000 childhood cancer survivors live in the United States. Unfortunately, 95% of these survivors will suffer from significant long-term health effects.
The most common cancer types among 15-19 year olds are thyroid cancer, Hodgkin lymphoma, brain and central nervous system tumors, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
