Summary

This study is creating a digital program to help East Asian immigrants with cancer build resilience and start conversations about advance care planning with their families. Researchers will interview religious leaders and test the tool with 84 patients to see if it is easy to use and acceptable. The goal is to make these discussions more comfortable by addressing cultural beliefs and barriers.
