Actress Constance Zimmer revealed she was diagnosed with cancer this past March. She kept her diagnosis private at the time, but disclosed in an Instagram post this week.

"I was out on a very public press tour for Love Story, while keeping my diagnosis and treatment private. I then followed my surgeries with radiation, while celebrating my Emmy Nomination."

25 years ago, Cancer and Careers launched with one staff member and a basic website, built to answer the questions people face after a diagnosis like: How do I tell my boss? What are my rights? Am I allowed to keep working?

That simple website has grown into two websites (in English and Spanish) serving hundreds of thousands of people every year with informational articles, a library of publications, Ask a Career Coach forum, our resume review program, a blog and newsfeed to keep people up-to-date on current conversations around the intersection of work and cancer, an event calendar and so much more. What hasn't changed is our purpose: eliminating fear and uncertainty for people navigating work after a cancer diagnosis.

Melanie Rudolph was working as a fundraiser for St. Tammany Cancer Center when she herself was diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic melanoma. After two years of treatment, she is back at work organizing a gala raising money for St. Tammany.

"I think this has fueled me to continue to do what I do. It is just so important that we continue funding and do everything that we possibly can to hopefully one day find a cure for cancer."

What a night! We loved seeing so many longtime friends and meeting so many new people at CEW’s Beauty Expo.
