We match your loved one with a counselor who has completed the American Cancer Society LION™ training for 1-on-1 virtual support, helping them get the most out of their clinical care, manage stress, access resources, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of care does Jasper offer?
Jasper offers supportive care, which focuses on everything that happens outside of your clinical appointments. Jasper’s care counselors help you with pain management, nutritional guidance, social support, preparing for appointments, understanding treatment options, and more at every stage of cancer treatment, from newly diagnosed to survivorship.
How is Jasper different from my clinical care?
Jasper does not replace advice or treatment from your clinical team. Jasper’s counselors support you through the emotional, mental, and physical challenges of cancer, but do not make clinical recommendations.
While your clinical team focuses on your diagnosis and treatment, Jasper helps you access quality care, vetted resources, and feel more in control.
Are all your services virtual?
Yes. Jasper sessions take place virtually via video call or phone call. You can also text with your dedicated counselor in between sessions or message them via our app.
What cancer expertise do Jasper counselors have?
All Jasper counselors have completed the American Cancer Society Leadership in Oncology Navigation (ACS LION™) program. ACS LION is a training and credentialing program that standardizes non-clinical patient navigation services for people with cancer and their loved ones. The program was designed to support CMS Principal Illness Navigation (PIN) reimbursement and aligns with professional oncology navigation (PONT) standards.
The ACS LION curriculum covers care navigation and cancer basics, coordinating health system services and community-based services, promoting patient self-advocacy, and more. The ACS LION credential enables consistent, reliable, and standardized support, and allows Jasper’s counselors to support patients more effectively.
What will I work on with my Jasper counselor?
It’s up to you! Together, you’ll create a care plan tailored to your needs at any given moment. While we use your treatment stage as a jumping off point, you can ask your counselor for support with anything that feels important, like financial resource assistance, managing side effects, coordinated rides to and from appointments, having hard conversations with friends and family, and more. Learn more about how we help here.
