This week’s guest blog is from Joel Kent. Joel lives in New York with his wife and two children. Joel is a long-time supporter and advocate for the Cancer Support Community. His most recent effort to support the organization and all people impacted by cancer was to run the Chicago Marathon to raise money and awareness for CSC.

Today’s guest blog, in honor of National Cancer Prevention Month, is by Jeanne Ellinport, Managing Director of External Affairs for the Prevent Cancer Foundation.

March is National Social Work Month. In honor of our many social workers, CSC is featuring a new blog every day this week from a different CSC social worker. You can also send out your own tribute to any social worker who has made a difference during your cancer journey on social media with the hashtag #31DaysofSW. Today’s #31DaysofSW blog post is from Jim McManus, LCSW, BCD, DCSW, OSW-R. Jim is a Cancer Support Helpline counselor.
