Sylvester Survivorship and Supportive Care Institute
Sylvester Survivorship and Supportive Care Institute
The Sylvester Cancer Survivorship and Supportive Care Institute is a new, specialized center dedicated to improving the lives of cancer survivors and their families. Our mission is to provide comprehensive, evidence-based care, conduct innovative research, and offer extensive education and outreach.
Right now, nearly 19 million Americans are living as cancer survivors, and this number is projected to grow to over 22 million within a decade. While improved detection and treatment are excellent news for survival, many survivors face chronic side effects, challenges to their emotional well-being, and fragmented care. Our Institute was created to bridge this gap.
Establishing this Institute centralizes efforts, which elevates Sylvester as a national leader in evidence-based survivorship and supportive care while also advancing research, education and community engagement.
