Newfoundland and Labrador

Newfoundland, home to 500,000 islanders, faces significant challenges in accessing pancreatic cancer care, including a lack of clinical trials. With limited treatment options and fewer resources compared to larger provinces, patients and families often navigate a more difficult journey. However, there are still key support programs available to help with treatment, emotional well-being, and connecting with others who understand the challenges you face in this tight-knit community.
