Crossroads4Hope Welcomes New Trustee to Board of Directors as Organization Celebrates its 25th Year of Caring

BEDMINSTER, N.J. - EntSun -- Crossroads4Hope, A Network of Cancer Support (CR4H), is proud to announce the appointment of Anthony V. Cava, MS, RPh, FACHE, to its Board of Trustees, strengthening the organization's leadership at a pivotal moment in its effort to advance supportive cancer care nationwide.

Crossroads4Hope provides whole-person and family supportive cancer care at no charge—including access to oncology social work, child life services, financial assistance, nutrition, education, navigation, and mind-body programs—to individuals and families impacted by cancer across New Jersey, 44 states and seven countries.

"Cancer is more than a medical diagnosis—it creates a profound emotional, social, and practical burden for individuals and families," said Amy Sutton, CEO of Crossroads4Hope. "At Crossroads4Hope, we are working to close the gap in access to supportive cancer care by putting people—not disease—at the center of care and expanding access to the support people need to navigate cancer wherever they live."

"I was drawn to the mission of Crossroads4Hope because of the gap the organization fills in the lives of the families impacted by a life altering cancer diagnosis, filling the needs of people at their most vulnerable time", said Cava.
