Scottsbluff, NE - In conjunction with Regional West Medical Center’s Cancer Treatment Center, the Young Survivors Coalition of Western Nebraska invites young cancer survivors throughout the panhandle to attend a support meeting and potluck dinner on Friday, March 6.

Survivors in their teens, twenties, thirties, and ‘older’ young survivors, as well as their support person, are all welcome. The group will meet on a regular basis to share survivor stories, advocate for those with cancer, and together bring an active voice of cancer survivors to western Nebraska.
