The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) is a brand dedicated to ending suffering and death from cancer. They believe that achieving this mission requires more than just medical advancements and research, but also changes in legislation and policy. ACS CAN empowers volunteers, individuals whose lives have been impacted by cancer, to advocate for change at the state and federal level.

ACS CAN's work focuses on several key areas. They strive to reduce health disparities, increase access to healthcare and health insurance, remove obstacles to cancer care, and promote cancer prevention through initiatives such as increasing access to Medicaid and promoting healthy lifestyles. They also prioritize cancer research funding, support for childhood cancer research, and improving the quality of life for cancer patients through pain relief and palliative care.

To support their work, ACS CAN organizes events and policy forums across the country, including the Relay for Life and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. They also offer various ways for individuals to get involved, such as making donations, becoming a member, volunteering, and fundraising. Join ACS CAN in their fight against cancer and be a part of making a difference
