AFHU is headquartered in New York and has seven regional offices working in close partnership with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Cedars-Sinai's Wellness, Resilience, and Survivorship Program, part of the Cedars-Sinai Cancer Patient and Family Support Program, maintains a mission of improving the physical, psychological, social and spiritual wellbeing of cancer patients and their families through providing educational services and activities.
