Family Support Program

If you have found your way to this web page you are most likely the parent of a child with a brain tumor. This is a very difficult place that you find yourself in, and we want you to know that you are not alone. At the PBTF, we work to provide resources for families and to fund research into the causes of childhood brain tumors that will provide cures for this terrible disease.

As you travel the road to survivorship for your child, you will need to not only deal with your child's medical care,but also with your other children and your relationship with your spouse.

It's essential that parents learn the basic facts about brain tumors in children and begin to ask questions about their child's brain tumor. We've prepared a series of basic booklets on childhood brain tumors to give you medical questions to ask about your child's tumor and treatment, as well as basic information about the most common childhood tumors.

Our booklets, many of which are also available in Spanish, are available at no charge to parents, medical and social work professionals, and educational institutions.
