💜 Honoring the Caregivers Who Make Healing Possible 💜
As we close out this week of November cancer awareness, today we honor the quiet heroes among us the patient caregivers who show up, hold hands, make appointments, advocate, encourage, and love through every moment of a cancer journey.
November is National Caregivers Month, a time to recognize the strength, compassion, and resilience of those who care for cancer patients every day. Their support is often unseen, but it is deeply felt.
At Hope Cancer Resources, we walk alongside caregivers with:
💬 Counseling services for emotional support
🤝 Support groups to connect with others who understand
📞 Education and guidance to navigate treatment, decisions, and stress
💛 A community that honors the work they do — because no caregiver should feel alone
To every caregiver:
Your love is powerful. Your presence is healing. Your impact is immeasurable.
Together, we support the patients and the caregivers who bring hope to every day.

🧡 Today we highlight Carcinoid & Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) 🧡
November is Carcinoid/Neuroendocrine Tumor Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness for these rare and often misunderstood cancers. Early detection, education, and support are essential, and no one should face a diagnosis alone.
At Hope Cancer Resources, we offer individual counseling and support groups for patients and caregivers affected by NETs. Our trained counselors provide compassionate guidance, help navigate emotional challenges, and connect you with others who truly understand your journey.
One of our patients shared:
“The support I received from Hope Cancer Resources made a world of difference. Being able to talk with counselors and connect with a support group gave me strength and hope I didn’t know I had.”
This November, join us in raising awareness, supporting patients and caregivers, and building a community of hope. Every story matters.
You are not alone, we’re here to listen, support, and guide you every step of the way.

Today is the Great American Smokeout, a national day dedicated to taking the first step toward a smoke-free life.
At Hope Cancer Resources, we know quitting to***co is one of the most powerful choices a patient or caregiver can make to improve treatment outcomes, reduce recurrence risk, and strengthen overall wellbeing. And you don’t have to take that step alone.
✨ Our To***co Treatment Program offers free, personalized coaching from our Certified To***co Treatment Specialist, Leisha, and for many, that support becomes life-changing.
One patient shared:
“Enter Hope Cancer Resources and Leisha, my Smoking Cessation Coach. The personal approach and accountability was a game changer in my life. I wasn’t even sure I wanted to quit, I just wanted to WANT to. Leisha understood without judgment. Week by week, she made it easy to be honest, offered real tools (not just platitudes), and gave me the confidence that this time could be different.
Thanks to the program, I set my quit date armed with support, practical strategies, and encouragement. It wasn’t easy, but step by step it got better. Today, I’m proud to say I’ve been smoke‑free for over a year. I owe that and more to Hope Cancer Resources and my astounding Coach, Leisha.”- Deede Farris
This is what the Great American Smokeout is all about, hope, support, and a new beginning.
If you’re ready to explore quitting, even if you’re not sure where to start, we’re here to help.
No pressure. No guilt. No judgment. Just support.
📞 Contact us at (479) 361‑5847
We'll help you get there.

This week, we honor those affected by cancer and shine a light on the importance of support, care, and wellness.
November is Stomach Cancer Awareness Month
Stomach cancer can be overwhelming. Physically, emotionally, and financially. At Hope Cancer Resources, we provide wellness services to support the whole patient:
💛 Nutrition counseling to manage treatment side effects and maintain strength
💛 Mental health support and counseling for emotional well-being
💛 Financial guidance and assistance to reduce stress
💛 Support groups and community programs to ensure no patient faces cancer alone
“I recently moved to NWA. From the moment I stepped in the door I have been greeted with a smile and warmth. I am thankful for the services Hope Cancer Resources offers. I have jumped into yoga and personal training. My body is feeling stronger day by day. The classes also offer a sense of community. Hannah quickly welcomed me in and made taking the first step easy. Hope Cancer Resources is a wonderful needed service. Thank you for all you do and offer.” - Grateful Patient
Your support allows us to provide essential wellness services that improve quality of life and bring hope to patients and families.
This November, we pause to honor and raise awareness for cancers that affect thousands of lives each year, Pancreatic, Stomach, and Lung Cancer. Each of these cancers presents unique challenges for patients and families, and the journey can be physically, emotionally, and financially overwhelming.
💜 November is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month 💜
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers, with nearly 60,000 new cases diagnosed in the U.S. each year. It often shows no early symptoms, and the five-year survival rate remains low, making early support and care more crucial than ever. 💜
At Hope Cancer Resources, we are dedicated to supporting patients and families facing this difficult journey. From providing emotional support and financial assistance to helping patients navigate treatments, we ensure no one has to face cancer alone.
This month, we honor those fighting pancreatic cancer, remember loved ones lost, and stand in solidarity with families navigating this challenge. Your support can make a real difference, helping patients access care, resources, and hope when they need it most.
💜 Together, we can give hope and strength to those impacted by pancreatic cancer.

Our mission is to provide compassionate, professional cancer support and education in the Northwest Arkansas region today and tomorrow. Our vision is to provide hope and enhance quality of life by expanding prevention, wellness and comprehensive cancer support services in our region.
Dealing with a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, and we want to do everything we can to help patients and caregivers throughout the journey. We provide patient support, navigation, survivorship and wellness programs, and cancer prevention education at no cost for families and communities in our four-county region of Benton, Carroll, Madison and Washington.
We offer a continuum of emotional support including crisis intervention, individualized supportive counseling and support groups. Our team of licensed social workers provides emotional support to patients, family members and/or caregivers.
We provide transportation to and from cancer-related medical appointments to help ensure access to care when no other assistance is available.
We help alleviate some of the financial burdens patients may face due to their cancer diagnosis and treatment. Our financial assistance includes cancer-related medical prescription medication, cancer-related dental care and other emergency needs including rent/mortgage, car payments, gasoline (gas cards), travel for out-of-town treatment (hotel, airfare), utilities, and homeowners and automobile insurance.
Our Spanish interpreter is available to assist patients during their cancer-related appointments to help ensure clear communication with their medical team.
A Certified To***co Treatment Specialist is available to meet one-on-one with patients and caregivers to talk about strategies and resources to help in quitting the use of to***co products.
In 2017, we launched our Wellness Center for Hope to promote wellness, healthy living and overall quality of life for cancer survivors and caregivers by offering access to knowledge and a variety of health-oriented activities that will aid in a healthier cancer journey. Our wellness team provides individualized plans to help with emotional and physical well-being.
Educational programs are a key component of our services to promote the overall health and quality of life of Northwest Arkansas residents. Our staff, including a Certified Health Education Specialist provides free cancer prevention education to schools, churches, business and civic organizations in our region.
Our programs are funded through grants as well as individual and corporate donations. Every dollar donated to Hope Cancer Resources stays in Northwest Arkansas and benefits our community and families living with cancer in our area.
