Making Headway Foundation Inc

Returning home from the hospital can be a disorienting and isolated feeling for the patients and for the parents and their family members. They find themselves struggling to adjust to a familiar place where everything has changed. To this end, making headway provides, free of charge, individual psychological and psyachiatric counseling for parents and their children who are diagnosed with a brain or spinal cord tumor and free of charge educational counseling for children surviving a brain or spinal cord tumor who have difficulties returning to school and keeping up with the curriculum.

At local hospitals, we provide patient support in some other ways, such as funeral expenses for children who have passed away and whose families cannot afford the costs, scholarships for children surviving a brain tumor and other family event expenses for these children and their families.
