Last Monday, the team traveled to Cass Health to launch the start of our survivorship programming in Atlantic, Iowa! We met dozens of local residents, survivors, caregivers and Cass Health staff who are excited about the opportunity to extend our survivorship programs to rural Iowa. We also connected with our new partners at the Atlantic YMCA and their instructor Kiki.

Mary + Dr. Rick Rinehart reconnected as well - Dr. Rinehart, an ENT at Cass Health, was one of our original team members on the inaugural transformational journey to Everest Base Camp trip in 2011!

We are thrilled to be expanding our reach to more and more survivors in Iowa!
