Surviving Idol

National Young Adult Cancer Awareness Week takes place the first week in April and is a collaborative effort with the young adult cancer advocacy movement.

Vital Options is seeking to inspire and nurture the creative process that is healing, expressive, and can deliver a message on behalf of young adult cancer awareness, and will be accepting submissions from young adult survivors worldwide.

Submissions will be featured on The Group Room® cancer talk show, which is returning in an all new format as an HD quality Internet TV show and at www.survivingidol.com.

Surviving Idol is being produced in association with Emmy Award Winning producer Scott Sternberg and Scott Sternberg Productions. Future plans include a concert featuring the winners of Surviving Idol.
