Your zip code, your connections, and your ethnicity should not impact your chance of survival. That's why ArmorUp for Life advocates for underserved communities by providing essential education, whole patient support, access to experts, survivorship skills plus useful tips and advice.
Our work begins long before a cancer diagnosis, and gives patients the tools for success during diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship once it does.
From high blood pressure and heart disease to diabetes and obesity, people of color already face common risk factors that make it even harder to effectively treat cancer.
But even if you’re not a person of color, PREhab is for you.
Showing up fit for the fight sets you up for better outcomes. PREhab can change suggested doses, treatment plans, and save lives.
Underserved communities suffer from health disparities that are taking their lives in disproportionate numbers. We can make a difference, but it's going to take a village, or as we like to call it, a PREhabilitation Nation.
Rather than asking people to beat the odds, it's time to change the odds!
Brown and black communities need critical attention to address the health inequities and co-morbidities that are taking their lives at alarming rates.

Each episode features Loriana and expert guests, sharing essential health and lifestyle information that can dramatically change patient outcomes and save lives.
ArmorUp for Life's network of experienced Patient Navigators know how to combine their practical experience and database of vetted volunteer resources and cancer experts who are available to be matched with patients in need.

Mobility is essential to resilience and recovery. That's why ArmorUp for Life provides Mobility Kits to patients in the hospital, including everything a patient needs to get moving and strategies for staying motivated during the journey.
Survival takes work. Our bi-annual destination retreats brings together an ecosystem of survivorship experts to teach and practice essential skills, including psycho-oncology, mindfulness, yoga, cardio, healthy eating, and advocacy.
Participants will be trained to return to their communities and spread the ArmorUp for Life gospel to other survivors.
Because no one should have to go it alone.
Let an ArmorUp for Life Patient Navigator accompany you through your entire patient journey and into survivorship. Tap into their expertise and connections to get the support you need, and create your own pit crew.
Escape on a retreat with a team of experts to master essential survival skills and become and ArmorUp for Life Ambassador in your community.
