Life After Cancer Deserves Structure, Support and Continuity
Sierra Cancer Wellness Foundation funds structured, evidence-based cancer survivorship education and longitudinal health & wellness coaching programs that extend beyond active treatment.
Sierra Cancer Wellness Foundation
Who We Are
Sierra Cancer Wellness Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding access to high-quality health and wellness support for cancer survivors, particularly those in underserved communities.
We exist to ensure that survivorship care does not end when treatment ends and that evidence-based, compassionate support is available to those who need it most, regardless of income, background or ability to navigate complex healthcare systems.
The Foundation operates with a singular focus: mobilizing philanthropic and grant funding to bring structured, credible survivorship programs into the community, where survivors can actually engage with and benefit from them.
Why We Exist
While advances in cancer treatment have improved survival rates, many survivors may be left without structured, ongoing support once treatment concludes.
Hospitals and cancer centers may offer survivorship resources but survivors are often:
physically exhausted
emotionally overwhelmed
navigating financial strain
and expected to independently locate, enroll in and sustain lifestyle changes during a vulnerable phase of recovery.
Sierra Cancer Wellness Foundation exists to bridge this gap.
The Foundation was created in response to a clear and persistent need: survivorship support that is accessible, coordinated and designed for the realities that survivors face after treatment.
What We Do
✔ Structured cancer survivorship education
✔ Longitudinal health & wellness coaching
✔ Measurable, outcomes-oriented programs
✔ Designed to address post-treatment survivorship gaps
Our programs are educational and coaching based in nature and are not intended to replace medical, mental health or therapeutic services.
Our Focus
Our programs are intentionally designed to complement oncology, primary care and community-based services during the survivorship phase following cancer treatment.
We focus on delivering structured, cohort-based survivorship education and health & wellness coaching that supports survivors as they rebuild strength, confidence and daily routines in real-world conditions.
Our approach emphasizes:
Professional facilitation grounded in evidence-informed health and wellness coaching principles
Ongoing engagement and continuity, that support sustainable behavior change over time
Practical, sustainable lifestyle behavior change across areas such as nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management and emotional well-being
Clear role alignment with medical, mental health and community providers to support coordinated care
This model allows survivors to build skills, confidence and meaningful connection over time, while remaining appropriately connected to their broader healthcare and support networks.
Our programs are educational and coaching based in nature and are not intended to replace medical, mental health or therapeutic services.
What Sets Us Apart
Our programs are designed to complement oncology and primary care services by addressing the survivorship phase following treatment. Programs are delivered through structured, cohort-based models led by National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coaches grounded in NBHWC-certified coaching principles and the core pillars of lifestyle health and wellness. Through structured programs, participants often build sustainable health behaviors, practical self management skills and a renewed sense of confidence and connection as they navigate life after treatment.
“At Sierra Cancer Wellness Foundation, we exist to ensure that cancer survivorship support continues even after treatment ends. The Foundation mobilizes philanthropic and grant funding to expand access to structured survivorship education and health & wellness coaching so survivors can recover, rebuild and move forward with strength and dignity.”
