In previous episodes we have talked about Hope Lodge, a program of the American Cancer Society (https://www.cancer.org/support-programs-and-services/patient-lodging/hope-lodge.html). The ACS offers free housing in facilities staffed and run by the ACS at various locations throughout the United States. In order to access this program during treatment you need help from a social worker (most cancer centers can help you access a social worker).
Gloria, a social worker, cancerworld caregiver and friend shares her experience staying at the Hope Lodge facility in Houston, TX.
