Strategies for identifying and recruiting parents with advanced cancer with dependent children, a population that faces unique challenges for cancer care receipt and research participating is lacking. We outline three challenges to recruit eligible adults with advanced cancer who are also parents to children and offer recommendations to guide future protocols and study procedures for this poorly-understood population. Nurse researchers can incorporate recommendations into study protocols and procedures to identify and address unmet needs of this population.
