The New England Pain Relief Program believes every person has a right to optimal pain relief and quality of life. We are dedicated to improving pain management for all cancer patients through increasing public awareness, providing quality professional education, and eliminating regulatory barriers that impede good pain management.

Anyone who cares about pain relief, your own or someone else’s, is encouraged to become involved with the New England Pain Relief Program. Depending on your state of residence, free membership may include quarterly electronic newsletters, invitations to professional and public educational offerings, information about pain programs in your local community, pain advocacy training, an opportunity to network with others passionate about good pain management, and a wide range of volunteer opportunities.

For more information or to find out how you or your institution can partner with us, email Amy Goldstein at Amy.Goldstein@cancer.org.
