The role of the Patient and Family Outreach Volunteer (PFO) is to provide welcome phone calls to new patients and families who have contacted The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, and let them know about our local resources and patient/family programs. These patients and families will have already spoken with information specialist in our National office about disease education and national resources.
The role of the PFO is to be the first local LLS representative with whom a cancer patient or their family member speaks. You will be an important part of their cancer journey and provide much needed support and resources.
