Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology (AYA) Program

The Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology (AYA) Program in Quincy, IL, is dedicated to supporting young cancer survivors aged 15 to 39 through a compassionate and comprehensive approach. By harnessing the expertise of a multidisciplinary team of clinicians and clinical researchers from the renowned Lurie Cancer Center in Chicago, we ensure that our services align with nationally established guidelines to address the unique challenges faced by AYA patients. Our tailored offerings include psychosocial support, fertility counseling, health insurance and financial counseling, surveillance and survivorship care, access to clinical trials, specialty cancer programs, and palliative care. We also collaborate with local support centers to provide a network of resources that foster learning, discussion, and community for those navigating their cancer journey. When necessary, we are committed to offering medically essential care at free or discounted rates, ensuring that every young adult receives the help they need during this critical time in their lives.
