Young people (aged 12-24 years) who have a parent with cancer report a complex array of needs, many of which go unmet. The preliminary findings reported may be used to inform service providers in the development and evaluation of need-based programs to redress these unmet needs and thus ameliorate the effects of parental cancer. Services addressing information and school-based interventions are particularly pertinent given these current results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
