SOCIAL & EMOTIONAL SUPPORT
SOCIAL & EMOTIONAL SUPPORT
Through this journey, what we know scares us, but what we do not know should not
scare us. The American Brain Tumor Association (ABTA) has multiple sources of
knowledge to share with you: supportive CareLine staff, Patient & Caregiver
Mentor Support, and an online support community.
OUR SUPPORT SERVICES ARE 100% FREE FOR PATIENTS AND CAREGIVERS
CARELINE
800-886-ABTA (2282) 8:30 AM-5:00 PM CST or info@abta.org
- Information on treatment and care
- Finding brain tumor treatment centers
- Financial assistance resources
- Finding clinical trials
SUPPORT GROUPS
From diagnosis, surgery, and treatment side effects, to recovery and for
some—recurrence—you may feel anxious and isolated. Support groups can improve
your emotional well-being and quality of life. Virtual and in-person options.
PATIENT & CAREGIVER MENTOR SUPPORT
Our Mentor Program offers patients and caregivers the opportunity to connect
with someone who has gone through a similar brain tumor diagnosis, treatment,
and care.
FINANCIAL SUPPORT
Being diagnosed with a brain tumor takes a toll on the patient and their family
physically, emotionally, and financially. Medical bills and related costs can
quickly add up. We have a list of resources to help.
WEBINARS
The free educational webinar series is an excellent resource for brain tumor
patients and caregivers to learn more about brain tumor types, treatments,
well-being topics, and research updates from nationally recognized experts.
EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES
- About Brain Tumors
- Questions to Ask Your Doctor
- Tumor-specific educational materials
- Caregiver Handbook
- Clinical Trials
and more
SPEAK TO A PERSON AT OUR CARELINE
For brain tumor information and resources, call 800-886-ABTA (2282) or submit
your request online with the ABTA Contact Form and a CareLine staff member will
be in touch within one business day.
The CareLine team is available Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
CT. Please note that we close daily from 12:15 p.m. to 1:15 p.m CT.
ABTA CareLine staff can assist you with a variety of resources, including:
* Brain tumor educational resources
* Information on treatment and care
* Finding brain tumor treatment centers
* Social-emotional support resources
* Information for the newly diagnosed
* Resources for caregivers
* Financial assistance resources
* Finding clinical trials
* Information on common symptoms and side effects
**Please note that ABTA is not able to answer complex medical questions or offer
medical advice. Questions of a medical nature that cannot be answered through
ABTA resources (i.e., ABTA website or other reputable online sources) should be
directed to medical professionals.
LOOKING FOR ONE-ON-ONE SUPPORT?
ABTA Patient & Caregiver Mentor Support is a free mentor matching service that
pairs adult brain tumor patients, survivors, and caregivers with mentors who
have been through a similar situation. Connecting with a mentor provides the
opportunity to ask personal questions and receive support from someone who is
uniquely familiar with the brain tumor experience. Our trained volunteer mentors
offer social-emotional support and share their experience with brain tumor
diagnosis, treatment, and care.

survivors, and caregivers come together to share experiences and support each
other. Find information about malignant and non-malignant tumors, GBM,
immunotherapy, genetic testing, and more.

INSURANCE & FINANCIAL RESOURCES
Making sense of the healthcare system – including insurance – is a necessary
step in the brain tumor journey. To simplify things, we’ve collected some
helpful resourced listed through the button below.
We have compiled a list of financial assistance resources for brain tumor
patients, families, and caregivers. For more information, talk with your
navigator or hospital social worker
