Cancer & Serious Illness Support
You don't have to figure this out alone. Whether we can assist directly or connect you with a trusted community partner, we'll do our best to help you find the next step.
A serious illness affects the whole person and the whole family. Through Still Standing, we offer compassionate resource navigation for individuals and families affected by cancer or other serious illness, including connections to practical support, community resources, caregiver resources, and other relevant assistance. Still Standing may provide practical care support as resources and funding allow. UHS does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment recommendations, prognosis, or clinical interpretation.
How We Can Connect You
- Connections to practical support resources during serious illness

Every situation is unique, and you deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. We'll take the time to understand your needs, explore available resources, and help connect you with the most appropriate support available.
We are currently building our verified resource directory.
Our team is carefully compiling a trusted, up-to-date directory of resources across Virginia and Northeastern North Carolina. While we build this list, please reach out and we will personally help connect you to available support.
