Groupe d’intervention spécifique aux jeunes adultes axé sur le retour au travail ou aux études.

Une équipe de recherche de l'Université du Québec à Montréal (UQÀM) a développé un groupe d'intervention en-ligne, pour les jeunes adultes francophones atteints du cancer, qui vise à faciliter le retour au travail ou le retour aux études. Ces chercheurs visent à recruter des Canadiens qui sont à l’aise de communiquer en français, âgés de 18 à 39 ans, pour participer à cette étude. Il y aura un total de 6 séances en-ligne offertes toutes les deux semaines, et accompagnées d’un manuel d’intervention.
