Twist Out Cancer offers psychosocial support to previvors, survivors and caregivers affected by cancer using creative arts programs as a healing mechanism. Their community, comprised of tens of thousands affected by cancer, will soon gain access to EO Care's educational resources on cannabis, per a press release.

Jenna Benn Shersher, founder and CEO of Twist Out Cancer, stressed the need for clinical guidance in navigating the use of cannabis during the cancer journey.

Dr. Brooke Worster, director of Supportive Oncology at Jefferson Health and an EO Care medical advisor underscored the significance of informed guidance as many cancer patients were using cannabis without considering potential drug interactions.

“According to the National Cancer Institute, 1 in 2 people will get cancer in their lifetime,” said Sean Collins, co-founder and CEO of EO Care, who also highlighted the partnership's role in helping cancer patients make informed and safe choices regarding cannabis.
