Peer Support
A Special Partnership for Parents and Caregivers
About Peer Support
Special Love has partnered with Cancer Hope Network to bring their Hopeful Hearts: Parents Supporting Parents program to our community. This free, one-on-one peer mentor program connects parents and caregivers of children with cancer to trained mentors—other parents who have walked a similar journey and are ready to offer support, encouragement, and understanding.
Program At a Glance
Several Special Love alumni parents are training to be mentors, and we're helping Special Love families match with mentors—people who truly understand what you’re going through.
Whether you’re in the midst of treatment, navigating survivorship, or anywhere in between, you deserve support from someone who’s been there.
This partnership helps us expand the ways we support you, and we hope it brings added comfort and connection during your family’s journey.
