At Guided Path, we know that cancer impacts far more than the body — it affects families, communities, and every aspect of daily life. That’s why we’ve launched the East Tennessee Cancer Task Force, a regional initiative designed to bring people and organizations together to strengthen the support available for our neighbors facing cancer.
The Task Force unites healthcare providers, nonprofits, housing programs, food assistance agencies, transportation services, faith communities, and local leaders across 24 counties of East Tennessee. Together, we’re working to close gaps in care, share resources, and create practical solutions for the challenges patients and families face every day — from transportation and housing to food security and emotional support.
This is more than a network; it’s a movement of compassion and collaboration. By working side by side, we can ensure that no one in East Tennessee has to face the weight of cancer without a strong, connected community walking beside them.
