Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology (AYA) Program

The Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology (AYA) Program in Pekin, IL, is dedicated to supporting young cancer survivors aged 15 to 39 through a comprehensive range of tailored services. Drawing on the exceptional resources of Chicago's Lurie Cancer Center, our program brings together a multidisciplinary team of expert clinicians and researchers to address the unique challenges faced by AYA patients. We offer essential services including psychosocial support, fertility counseling, health insurance and financial guidance, surveillance and survivorship care, clinical trials, specialty cancer programs, and palliative care, all aligned with nationally recognized standards of care. In collaboration with various support centers, we create opportunities for education, discussion, and fellowship, ensuring that each individual receives the compassionate and targeted care they deserve. For those in need, we strive to make medically necessary care accessible through free or discounted rates.
