When you need it most.

Guided Path Terminal Cancer Support is a 501(c)3 non-profit committed to meeting the specific, often overlooked needs of individuals facing advanced-stage and terminal cancer diagnoses. While many cancer support organizations focus on general support for early-stage or more common cancers, Guided Path is dedicated to addressing the unique challenges experienced by those with advanced, rare, or aggressive diagnoses. Our mission is to provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to meet the urgent needs of patients and their families.

Our support begins with dedicated patient navigators who guide patients and families from diagnosis through every step of their journey. Equipped with specialized education, training, and experience, our navigators help patients understand their diagnosis and prognosis, facilitate meaningful conversations with loved ones, and support families through complex decisions. They assist with advanced care planning to ensure that patients’ wishes are honored and connect patients with resources for pain management and symptom relief, prioritizing comfort and dignity.

Guided Path works closely with each patient’s medical team, relieving families of the often overwhelming burden of navigating the healthcare system, so they can focus on what matters most—time together. For patients facing financial strain, our navigators can connect them to our Diagnosis Burden Assistance Program, offering vital support for medical-related expenses. With our specialized focus on advanced-stage support, we provide a level of care and understanding not typically offered by general cancer organizations, ensuring that patients receive truly meaningful assistance during one of life’s most challenging times.
