The registration is for Objective two and three that refers to the clinical trial. The investigators will determine their ability to recruit caregivers of patients with head and neck cancer being treated at Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center to a study that uses a technology‐based intervention, CONNECT, which may increase head and neck cancer caregivers' knowledge about the benefits of supportive care resources, identify their unmet needs, and connect them with supportive care resources. In this study the investigators also want to look at their ability to recruit a control group of caregivers, that is, caregivers of patients with head and neck cancer being treated at Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center that will receive a list of supportive care resources. Control groups are used in research to see if the intervention being studied really does have an effect. In addition, the investigators will determine whether or not the intervention has led to improvements in caregivers' use of supportive care resources, quality of care, and overall quality of life.
