Uterine Cancer Program Director (Part-Time/25 hours per week)

SHARE Cancer Support is a national nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization that provides critical support for the emotional and practical challenges that come with a diagnosis of breast or gynecologic cancer, while also delivering life-saving information about signs, symptoms, and screenings through on-the-ground community education. Established in 1976, SHARE is committed to serving people of all races, cultures, backgrounds, and identities.

SHARE’s dedicated staff and volunteers—many of whom have faced their own diagnoses—understand the needs of the diverse communities we serve. We provide a comprehensive range of services in multiple languages, free of charge. We approach every situation with deep empathy, and every voice is welcome, valued, and heard. Our goal is to ensure that everyone has access to the support and information they need to feel connected, informed, and empowered as healthcare consumers because no one should face cancer alone.
