Thrilled to be able to present a poster at the @APOSHQ 2025! A sneak peak into the preliminary findings from the UPLIFT study focused on the financial and mental well-being of LGBTQ+ cancer caregivers (PI: Kelly Tan)

We have to do better at supporting caregivers technically, emotionally, and financially!
