Support for People with Oral and Head and Neck Cancer

There are presently more than half a million survivors of oral and head and neck cancer living in the United States. Unfortunately, many survivors of this disease continue to have side effects from treatment and may look for someone to help them cope with the physical problems as well as the psychosocial problems concerning quality of life. Based on the size of the survivor population, there is a definite need for an organization such as SPOHNC.

Raising awareness of oral and head and neck cancer is an important part of SPOHNC’s mission. SPOHNC’s Chapters and additional volunteers help to raise awareness through many events, which include oral cancer screenings, educational fairs, tasting events, and move to music classes.

SPOHNC has developed a network of relationships with health care providers throughout the United States who specialize in oral, head and neck cancer. SPOHNC’s Medical Advisory Board consists of distinguished head and neck physicians treating patients at the top comprehensive cancer institutions.
