Mission: We provide compassionate, professional cancer support and education in the Northwest Arkansas area today and tomorrow.
Programs: Our vision is to provide hope and enhance quality of life by expanding prevention, wellness and comprehensive cancer support services in our region. Hope Cancer Resources employs a highly professional staff which includes licensed oncology social workers, a Spanish interpreter and certified health education specialists. Our team is passionate about providing help and education to families in Northwest Arkansas through our various programs. Our transportation service is designed to provide patients with safe and reliable transportation to and from their cancer-related appointments as needed. Financial assistance is provided for prescription medications, nutritional supplements, gas cards and everyday living expenses. Our goal is to help alleviate some of the financial stress patients and their families may face. Believing emotional support is essential for healthy survivorship, we offer this service ranging from a kind word or listening ear to individual, couples or family counseling sessions with a licensed oncology social worker. Hope Cancer Resources also provides emotional support in group settings. In addition, Hope Cancer Resources impacts the community by providing free cancer screenings and cancer prevention education. This education includes tobacco cessation and prevention, promoting healthy lifestyles and other means to reduce the risk of cancer. In 2017, we launched our Wellness Center for Hope to promote wellness and healthy living in cancer survivors and caregivers. Our desire is to enhance the quality of life in survivors and caregivers by restoring physical activity, optimizing nutrition and healthy weight, and developing healthy behaviors and lifestyles.
