Crossroads4Hope’s Support4Families program provides individuals, and families with social and emotional support for children, teens, and parents/caregivers at any point in their cancer journey. Our interdisciplinary team of social workers and child life specialists put into practice a family- centered approach to care that includes consulting with schools and community professionals to ensure individualized care for each family is best suited for their needs.
Who and How We Help
We support families impacted by a pediatric cancer diagnosis, adult cancer diagnosis, coping with loss due to cancer, and professionals working with children, teens, and families.
We empower families with communication strategies, share positive coping mechanisms, offer opportunities for creative expression, engage members through social connections, and provide emotional support in individual, family, and group formats.
Taking on Your Cancer Journey. Together.
Support4Families offers individual, group and family formats for support, based on the unique needs of the family.
Our Certified Child Life Specialists provide developmentally-appropriate tools to share with children, parents, and professionals. These resources range from webinars to activities, books, and more.
Crossroads4Hope is committed to providing outlets for healthy coping including mindfulness activities like yoga and breathwork. We also work with registered dieticians to provide child- focused nutrition education, complete with fun recipes and cooking lessons.
We provide school communities with the education, tools, and resources they need to cope with a cancer diagnosis or loss.
School support can include:
School Re-Entry Assistance | Classroom Education
Resource Navigation | Group Support

Connection with Other Professionals
When families present with concerns that extend beyond the services that we provide at Crossroads4Hope, our team turns to trusted community partners to work together to ensure all needs are addressed.
We provide vital resources for families impacted by pediatric cancer including financial support, thanks to a partnership with the Jason P. Schaible Memorial Fund. Together, we are Raising the Bar to reduce the burden of cancer on families beyond medical expenses.
