Brain Cancer Support and Solutions Alliance
About Us
Brain tumors present unique challenges, demanding specialized care from diagnosis through treatment. With a shared commitment to addressing these challenges, the Brain Cancer Support and Solutions Alliance leverages the strengths of its member organizations to provide timely and personalized support.
Together, these organizations exemplify the power of collaboration in the fight against brain cancer, providing a comprehensive support system that addresses the multifaceted needs of patients and their families. Through their combined efforts, the Brain Cancer Support and Solutions Alliance is committed to improving lives and advancing the search for effective treatments and cures.
Head for the Cure Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, builds awareness, raises funds, and ignites hope for the brain tumor community. Through their annual 5K Run/Walk events, we unite communities to honor those affected by brain cancer and remember loved ones lost to the disease. Funds raised support clinical research, patient and caregiver programs, and efforts to find a cure. Learn more at headforthecure.org.
The Musella Foundation For Brain Tumor Research & Information, Inc., provides crucial support to brain tumor patients by offering emotional and financial assistance, educational resources, and advocacy. Committed to driving progress, the foundation also funds critical research to improve treatment outcomes, fostering hope and innovation within the brain tumor community.
Cancer Commons is a network of patients, scientists, physicians, volunteers, and partner organizations united by a shared goal—to optimize each patient’s outcome and maximize collective learning to help others urgently seeking answers. They provide cancer patients, caregivers, and their oncologists with the evidence-based information needed to make good decisions—and seek to learn continuously, from every patient’s experience.
Our Nurse Navigator
As our initial initiative as an alliance, we introduced a unique nurse navigator dedicated to supporting those affected by brain cancer. If you or a loved one are facing this diagnosis, our oncology specialists are here to assist you. We can guide you through care options and develop a personalized action plan to identify and access the most effective treatments and tests. Our individualized support is informed by the latest evidence-based research and medical advancements.
