“Road of Life focuses on educating children on fitness, nutrition, and overall good decision making that will lead to healthier lives and greatly reduce the risk of developing cancer later in life. We recognize the work that ROL is doing and we want to help ROL create an Adolescent and Young Adult specific program to expand ROL’s program to this age group. We also look forward to working with ROL to acquire the funds and expertise to conduct a more comprehensive and longitudinal evaluation of the program’s impact.”

– John J. Letterio, M.D., Professor of Pediatrics at Case Western Reserve University and Chief of the Division of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology at Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital

“We are confident that the Road of Life Program will help improve the knowledge and build awareness of health for children in Cleveland.”

– Eileen Korey, Vice President of Communications at The MetroHealth System

“I believe the ROL program is a worthy effort that will make a positive difference in the lives of children.”

– Karen L. Gilliam, Ph.D. Manager of the Office of Diversity at The MetroHealth System

“Road of Life is a unique and exciting organization. ROL takes the idea of cancer prevention a few steps further and tries to establish good lifestyle choices and habits with children, long before they are potentially faced with a cancer diagnosis. I believe ROL’s unique ability to pull resources from different sources (the medical community, the public health community, the education community, etc.) allows this organization to be fluid and adaptable to any given situation or environment.”
