CHILDREN'S CANCER ASSOCIATION
JOYRX MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
Mentor program pairing seriously ill children and teens in treatment with trained, volunteer adult mentors. Mentors play games, listen to music, share hobbies, and provide companionship to relieve the anxiety, loneliness, and isolation experienced by children in treatment. A JoyRx mentor can also give parents a break to grab a cup of coffee, talk with doctors, or spend time with their other children.
