On Belay's mission is to build connection and community among youth who have or have had a loved one with cancer using adventure programs that encourage participants to uncover their inner resilience.

On Belay is a free community for kids impacted by a loved one's cancer. Loved one's could be a child's parent, sibling, grandparent, or best friend and could be newly diagnosed with cancer, in treatment, in remission, or have passed away. On Belay is not a traditional therapeutic program, but offers participants an opportunity to cope and perhaps heal through adventure, play, and time away from dealing with their loved one's illness. On Belay's programs encourage participants to uncover their inner resilience, create community, develop confidence, have fun, and connect with peers experiencing the impact of a loved one's cancer. Programs are free to all participants and occur year-round in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine. Learn more at: www.on-belay.org.
