The American Cancer Society

The American Cancer Society is an informational website designed to support people caring for someone with cancer. It brings together guidance, tools, and support in one place to help caregivers understand their role and find reliable help when they need it. It provided comfort, education, and connection during difficult times. 

What they offer: They have a collection of caregiving training videos that show you how to handle physical tasks and manage side effects at home. They also offer the “ACS CARES” app, which is like a personal assistant for finding local rides, groceries, or places to stay during treatment.
