24 Jun The Company We Keep: The Importance of our Community Partnerships
At Triage Cancer, we truly value the company we keep. Our network of more than 250 organizational partners within the cancer and broader health care community strengthens our ability to support individuals navigating a cancer diagnosis. These partnerships are central to our mission: to provide trusted cancer education on the legal and practical issues that arise after a diagnosis.
Why Community Partnerships Matter in Cancer Care
A cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, and the journey through treatment and survivorship is complex. While Triage Cancer offers free education on topics like health insurance, employment rights, and finances, we understand that cancer affects every aspect of life. That's why we build strong community partnerships—to expand access to additional cancer resources, tools, and services.
Although millions of individuals are impacted by cancer each year, the cancer support community remains relatively small. Despite its size, this community is incredibly resource-rich. By partnering with organizations across the cancer space, we ensure that people coping with cancer can access comprehensive, accurate, and timely information.
Who We Partner With
Triage Cancer is proud to collaborate with a wide variety of community partnerships in cancer care and education. These include:
- Health care providers
- Cancer advocacy organizations
- Support groups
- Educational institutions
- National and local nonprofits
- Lawyers, financial planners, and other professionals
These trusted partners bring valuable insights that help us shape our content and deliver programming that addresses the real-world questions individuals face after a cancer diagnosis.

How Triage Cancer Collaborates with Partners
We work with our partners in multiple ways to support the cancer community, including:
- Co-hosting educational events (in-person and virtual)
- Co-developing written and digital educational materials
- Creating blog content and social media campaigns
- Participating in partner-led programs and outreach efforts
One of our favorite ways to collaborate is by joining events hosted by our partners throughout the year, which allows us to bring cancer-related education directly to communities in need.
Building a Stronger Cancer Support Network Together
At Triage Cancer, we believe that knowledge is power—and community is everything. The strength of our organization lies not only in our legal and practical expertise, but in our ability to build lasting, meaningful partnerships that amplify our impact. By working together, we help individuals and families navigate cancer with confidence and clarity.
We’re grateful to all of our partners who share our commitment to supporting the cancer community.
