Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to pilot a beta version of a digital resource that supports the religious and spiritual beliefs of cancer patients, "MyInspiration".After receiving a cancer diagnosis, survivors are encouraged to make major life-altering decisions related to their treatment and care. The availability of spiritual/religious resources during cancer treatment may positively impact patient outcomes, feelings of well-being, and be essential components of holistic, patient-centered care. MyInspiration is a digital tool focused on spiritual and/or religious guidance and support that can be customized based on patient preferences and administered to cancer patients and their family members during cancer treatment. MyInspiration may help improve spiritual well-being in patients with cancer.
