Did You Know?
An estimated 70% of cancer deaths are attributed to cancers that lack early detection screenings.
Our Time To Act Is Now
Programs funding cancer care, research, and prevention are facing severe cuts. Here are quick & simple actions you can take now to support this critical funding:
Support Timely Access to Treatment
Show your support for the Safe Step Act, which would create reasonable guardrails on the use of step therapy, increasing timely access to treatment and reducing administrative costs and burdens to the healthcare system.
Join us in advocating to protect cancer patients, their loved ones, and everyone impacted by cancer. Send a quick form letter to your members of Congress — or add your own message —
Stand up for the Clinical Trial Modernization Act, which would remove financial barriers that prevent millions of Americans from participating in clinical trials.
Speak up for legislation that would ensure all payments — with or without the help of copay assistance — count towards patient’s out-of-pocket costs.
Stand Up for People Impacted by Cancer
Cancer disrupts the lives of our friends and loved ones, neighbors and colleagues, parents and families, children and their siblings. You can help.
Start small. I think we often [feel] we don’t have time to take part, or that what we have to offer is too small or limited, but in my experience this just isn’t true. It can start with something as simple as educating yourself or joining a community. Small steps can lead to big things — just see where the journey takes you.
