  • 6-60 months post-treatment (surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiation therapy) for cancer (If only received active surveillance for prostate cancer or lymphoma with no other cancer treatment, participant is ineligible.) The timeframe applies to the most recent completion of treatment if a participant had a cancer recurrence. It is acceptable to be on hormonal/maintenance therapies.

If the therapist cannot communicate with the participant by telephone, the participant will be excluded.
