SUPPORT GROUPS
The Association of Cancer Online Resources

The Association of Cancer Online Resources (ACOR) is an Internet-based public charity dedicated to improving the quality of care provided to cancer patients.  They also help patients, survivors and caregivers and other groups with quality of live concerns.

ACO uses its technological and biomedical resource experience to provide knowledge, support and community in a worldwide campaign to help cancer patients and their families.

Whether you or a family member has been diagnosed with cancer, you depend on your medical team to provide the best care for your illness. The fellowship and support from those you meet in a support group are an important part of helping you and your family deal with this difficult diagnosis. You also need a highly qualified and experienced team of Environmental Cancer Lawyers. At Weitz & Luxenberg, we can help you file a lawsuit to cover your medical bills, pain and suffering and other expenses.
