My Nonprofit Reviews

I am not exaggerating when I say that I owe my career to the National LGBT Cancer Network. For the past 9 years, they have invited me to be a part of their incredible community-engaged work. As a result, we have published several papers together on the experiences of LGBTQIA+ patients with cancer and their caregivers. These pieces have in turn helped us to advocate for more services and resources for our community in the context of cancer. Aside from helping me professionally, the National LGBT Cancer Network has used their advocacy, education, and support to help countless LGBTQIA+ patients with cancer. They are truly a shining beacon in the landscape of nonprofits serving our community.

The National LGBT Cancer Network is an invaluable resource for both LGBTQ+ cancer patients and their caregivers, and I routinely refer people to them as a critical source of knowledge about the needs of this community. On a personal level, working with the Network has sparked my interest in research on health disparities affecting LGBTQ+ cancer patients, and they are always open and excited to discuss new research opportunities. In short, the Network is a fantastic nonprofit serving both communities and academic partners.
