Art Therapy for Cancer Patients

Washignton DC-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations AIM Institute of Health and Pro-Cure Art are raising funds to provide free professional art therapy for adults with- and survivors of cancer. 

The program's overarching goal is to improve participants health-related quality of life by: (1) decreasing patients psychological distress caused by the diagnosis, and improving their ability to manage challenges surrounding the disease and its treatments; and (2) assisting survivors to readjust to life after treatments. 

The funds are raised to match the DC Government's partial grant for this program.
