If you or someone you care for is a survivor of childhood cancer facing learning difficulties, The POGO School and Work Transitions Program can help.

Survivors of brain tumours and other childhood cancers can develop learning difficulties resulting from their disease or treatment. This can impact their ability to achieve their educational and career goals.

The POGO Transitions Program facilitates a smoother transition from high school to appropriate school and work opportunities.
