Author(s):

Elizabeth Whittington

Just received the latest Cancer and Careers newsletter and found a little gem. The third edition of Cancer and Careers' "Living and Working with Cancer Workbook" was just recently released, and with it includes new legal information, a job search section and an expanded workbook area. It also includes chapters on legal rights, gathering information, taking time off and returning to work. The workbook is free to download. You can also order a hardcopy of the workbook through the Cancer and Careers' website (www.cancerandcareers.org) by filling out a brief questionnaire here.
