ACCC's Archived Survivorship Education Project
In 2007-2008 ACCC launched an educational project to raise awareness about the importance of comprehensive survivorship programs. As his ACCC President's Grant, then-President Richard B. Reiling, MD, FACS, led efforts to provide a full-range of educational resources. The result: ACCC's Survivorship Education Project, which is archived here. The project was made possible through a sponsorship funded by AstraZeneca and Abraxis Oncology.
