Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Loneliness, which is the perceived lack of social support and connection, has increased substantially in the past decade and is adversely affecting the health and wellbeing of cancer survivors. The study seeks to test an intervention that builds on the principles of social prescribing, and targets loneliness to determine if it improves overall wellness and quality of life among cancer survivors.
