Parent Organization
CARE - Cancer Aid Resource & Education, Inc.

CARE – Cancer Aid Resource & Education, Inc. serves the people of Las Cruces and Doña Ana County. Cancer brings devastation to individuals and families, yet the suffering goes far beyond diagnosis and treatment. For low and middle income families, cancer can result in a financial burden so profound that the National Cancer Institute has coined the term “financial toxicity” to describe the financial crisis of a cancer diagnosis. This financial burden doesn’t just create high rates of emotional distress; it also negatively affects patient outcomes and quality of life for the whole family. CARE is about helping local people today, local people recently diagnosed with any type of cancer and in treatment to cure, shrink or stop the progression of their cancer.  Assistance is provided so that local cancer patients can concentrate on treatment, healing, recovery and survival.
