Building Your Cholangiocarcinoma CARE Team

LEARN MORE

What Is a CARE Team?

CARE Teams are local volunteer groups dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by cholangiocarcinoma.

They spread awareness in their local communities

Illustrative slide titled “Research Highlights” featuring a stylized diagram of a liver with a highlighted bile duct. Surrounding icons represent genomics, immunotherapy, clinical trials, and data analysis—all connected by arrows pointing toward the bile duct region, indicating focus on bile duct cancer.

They share CCF resources with hospitals and clinics

They offer meaningful connection and peer support

They host gatherings and educational opportunities

CARE Teams help ensure no one faces this diagnosis alone — especially at the local level.

Who Is on a CARE Team?

CARE Team members are fully onboarded CCF volunteers who typically live within a two-hour drive of each other (flexible depending on circumstances).

Members typically include: Patients, Caregivers, Legacy caregivers, and Medical Providers
