At The National Children’s Cancer Society (NCCS), we are committed to helping survivors navigate life beyond treatment with confidence. Our publication, The View From Up Here: Your Guide to Surviving Childhood Cancer, was created specifically for teens and young adults and offers practical information to help survivors understand, prepare for, and embrace the next stage of their journey.
The guide explores a wide range of topics, including:
- Medical care
- Healthy living
- Emotional challenges
- Grief and loss
- Relationships
- Fertility
- Health insurance
- Educational challenges
- Employment
- Spirituality
- Advocacy
Throughout the guide, you’ll also hear directly from fellow survivors who share their own experiences, challenges, and words of encouragement. Their stories serve as a powerful reminder that no one has to navigate survivorship alone.
Survivorship may bring unexpected challenges, but it is also filled with resilience, growth, and hope. Whether you’re just beginning life after treatment or have been off treatment for years, The View From Up Here is designed to help you feel informed, empowered, and supported every step of the way.
