In addition, Care Partners have the opportunity to receive case management to assist with accessing the network of comprehensive health care services and other support services.Our Peer Matching is available for those diagnosed with a serious illness (or for loved ones of those diagnosed) to connect them with a survivor (or caregiver) of the same or similar illness to provide hope and support for the journey ahead.Cancer Support Groups are provided in collaboration with Texas Oncology for those living with cancer or for those that have a loved one living with cancer.
