| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research was to reveal social problems that cancer survivors confront in local communities, workplaces, and schools. We conducted surveys regarding 1) the general public's perception of cancer prognosis and incidence, 2) school teachers' perception of support for children whose parents have cancer, and 3) work-related issues experienced by mothers of children with pediatric cancers. Based on the results, we discussed measures that could achieve an effective and sustainable support system for cancer survivors in Japan.
