Fox Chase Cancer Center’s Young Adult Cancer Program was proud to be represented at Stupid Cancer's CancerCon 2026, the nation’s largest gathering dedicated to the adolescent and young adult cancer community.

Christopher Cann, MD and Disha Sawhney, DHA, MHA, FACHDM, joined patients, survivors, advocates, and health professionals from across the country to share ideas, build community, and help advance the future of young adult cancer care.

For young adults, cancer affects far more than treatment. It can disrupt school, careers, relationships, fertility, mental health, independence, and identity. Through the Young Adult Cancer Program, Fox Chase is working to create a more connected and supportive model of care designed specifically for this stage of life.

We are proud to help lead the charge in reshaping how cancer care is delivered to young adults — in Philadelphia and across the country.
