TCA fulfills an incredibly important need; filling a gap to help hospitals and institutions provide even better patient care geared specifically towards young people.” Who We Are Teen Cancer America (TCA) is dedicated to improving the lives of teens and young adults with cancer.

TCA is proud of its accomplishments, including: Impacting 31,350 families through hospital partnerships Awarding 62 hospital-partnered grants Providing consultation to 130 hospitals Offering free, individualized consultations to health systems interested in AYA program development TCA has a Los Angeles office which is the base for six staff and there are four remote staff.
