Everything you wanted to know about young adults and cancer. But were afraid to ask.

Arizona Retreat – Dream Street at Canyon Ranch

Dream Street runs a program at Canyon Ranch Spa in Tucson designed to help meet the needs of young adults ages 18 - 24 recovering or suffering from severe disease. At Canyon Ranch, participants with cancer and other chronic and life-threatening illnesses are given the opportunity to briefly escape their complex lives and medical problems. It is an environment where illness is overshadowed by group support and fun. The group dynamic at Canyon Ranch is a safe place to share feelings, interact with peers in a comfortable atmosphere and exchange personal hopes and uncertainties. Special sessions address topics such as self-esteem and body image. Programs that deal with career motivation and employment issues are also an integral part of this unique program.
