The Spanish language section of CancerHelp solves the problem of minimal cancer patient education materials for Spanish-speaking persons. CancerHelp contains over 2,000 pages of information in Spanish at both the patient and medical professional level including treatment, diagnosis, and supportive care/side effect information.

CancerHelp also contains the full text of NCI’s brochures in Spanish, as well as a listing of national cancer-related organizations.
