Digital Peer Navigation

Participants in the intervention group will receive ongoing support from a trained peer navigator for 3 months after completing treatment for cancer. Participants will be matched through a digital app with a trained peer navigator who assesses needs and barriers to care, provides practical, informational, and emotional support, and empowers them to take a proactive role in their health. Patients will communicate with their peer navigator through digital direct messaging, videoconference or by telephone. Participants will also have access to a health resource library on the digital app that contains local and national resources about cancer.
