The Reach To Recovery Program, with the American Cancer Society, is available in most counties in Oregon and Southwest Washington. Trained volunteers, who are former patients themselves, make visits at the hospital or at home. Physician referral is required if under a doctor's direct care. The program is designed to help women meet the physical, emotional and cosmetic needs related to the treatment of breast cancer. The volunteers bring literature and information for the patient and her family, and a kit that includes a temporary breast form.
