Just in time for the beginning of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, 2Morrow Health Inc. and the Washington State Department of Health (DOH) announced the launch of a new digital resource for Washington cancer survivors, called Vital: A Companion App for People Living with Cancer.

The free app is “designed to help cancer survivors learn and practice skills to support them on their cancer journey and in their recovery.” Developed based off of feedback from cancer survivors and caregivers, Vital features “self-led, interactive lessons on cancer-related topics” like coping with side effects, asking for emotional support, staying healthy, communicating with your care team and dealing with fatigue.

“While cancer doesn’t discriminate in who it can impact, we recognize that everyone’s individual cancer journey is unique and presents its own set of challenges,” said Michele Roberts, Assistant Secretary for Prevention and Community Health, DOH. “Our hope is that the Vital app can meet everyone where they are on their cancer journey and provide support that’s both personalized in its approach and universal in its compassion.”

According to the 2024 Cancer Facts and Figures released by the American Cancer Society, Washington state has an estimated 44,470 new cases this year, with an over 2 million estimation for the entire United States.

Vital app users will also get free access to other programs developed by 2Morrow Health that cover topics like managing stress, chronic pain, and grief.

The Vital app is now available for download on iPhone and Android devices. Visit 2morrowinc.com.
