Cancer Services of New Mexico offers a variety of programs and services to reduce cancer suffering for New Mexico's families.
This free, three-day educational retreat provides New Mexico's adult cancer patients/survivors and their families with the tools and information they need to better manage the survival process. The event includes a combination of educational workshops and fun family activities. Our next program will be held in May 2013.
Each year, New Mexico's current and former pediatric cancer patients and their families are treated to a special day together at the Rio Grande Zoo.

Distribution of free information kits that help newly diagnosed New Mexican parents and their children cope with the impact of cancer on the family.
LIPA is the Legal, Insurance, and Paperwork Assistance Program. Free clinics and tools that help cancer patients/survivors and their loved ones navigate the many legal, insurance, and paperwork issues associated with a cancer diagnosis.
A periodic statewide survey of New Mexico's cancer patients/survivors and their loved ones to get their perspectives on gaps in cancer-related services in our state. Results are used to focus and target our program offerings, and are shared with cancer services providers across the state.
Additional programs are currently in development. Please contact us to learn more, or to make suggestions about other programs that are needed in New Mexico.
