Çocukluk çağı kanserlerinde ölüm oranları, artan tedavi imkânları ile azalma göstermekte, hayatta kalma süresi uzamaktadır. Bu durum, yeni sorunların meydana gelmesine, hem çocukların hem de ailelerin hayatında önemli değişikliklerin yaşanmasına neden olmaktadır. Kanserli çocuklar ve aileleri için tedavinin her döneminde farklılık gösteren psikolojik, sosyal, ekonomik sorunlar ve destek gereksinimleri ortaya çıkmaktadır. Çocuklar için tedaviye bağlı fiziksel sorunların yanı sıra psikolojik problemler, azalan sosyal yaşam ve okuldan uzaklaşma en temel sorunları oluşturmaktadır. Aileler ise ekonomik sorunlar, yetersiz sosyal destek kaynakları, diğer çocuklarının bakımı, iş yaşamından uzaklaşma gibi nedenlerden dolayı stresli bir süreç yaşamaktadır. Sosyal hizmet, kanser hastalığından kaynaklanan sorunlara müdahale etmeye ve gerekli kaynakları hasta ve ailesi yararına kullanmaya odaklanır. Günümüzde hayatta kalma oranlarındaki artış, var olan müdahale yöntemlerini yetersiz kılmakta ve yeniliğe olan ihtiyacı göz önüne çıkarmaktadır. Bu çalışmada var olan sorun ve gereksinimlerin yanı sıra, tedavi imkânları ile artan hayatta kalma oranlarının kanserli çocuklar ve ailelerinde ortaya çıkardığı yeni sorun ve gereksinimler derinlemesine ele alınacak, sosyal hizmetin bu sorun ve ihtiyaçlara ilişkin müdahale alanları, kapsamlı bir şekilde değerlendirilecektir.
