Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer Awareness Week
30 March – 10 April
Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer Awareness Week raises awareness of the unique challenges faced by young people diagnosed with cancer.
Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Awareness Week highlights the importance of specialised care, research, and support services tailored to the needs of adolescents and young adults, including access to appropriate treatment, mental health support, and survivorship care.
Workplaces can support awareness by sharing information about cancer prevention and early detection, promoting supportive workplace policies for employees affected by cancer, and encouraging a culture of empathy and understanding for colleagues and families impacted by serious illness.
