Program
Participants will learn about acute and chronic leukemias - how they are diagnosed and classified.  They will also hear the most recent treatment options and clinical trials results presented at the 2016 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, as well as the support resources available locally through their cancer center and nationally through The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS).  Following this program, we hope patients will be more prepared to discuss their diagnosis and treatment with their oncology team. We encourage you to invite your caregiver and family members.

Pre-registration for this FREE program is required. Complimentary lunch will be provided.
