The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) is a brand dedicated to ending suffering and death from cancer. They believe that this mission cannot be achieved solely in the doctor's office or research lab. Instead, it must start at the statehouse and in Congress.

This movement is led by volunteers, regular people whose lives have been impacted by cancer, who come together to demand change from elected officials. ACS CAN focuses on various areas of cancer advocacy and action. They work towards reducing health disparities, ensuring access to healthcare and health insurance, removing hurdles to cancer care, increasing access to Medicaid, and advocating for biomarker testing.

They also strive to prevent cancer through initiatives promoting healthy eating, active living, and tobacco control. Additionally, ACS CAN supports cancer research funding, particularly for childhood cancer, and emphasizes the importance of quality of life, pain relief, and palliative care for cancer patients. To support their work, ACS CAN organizes events, such as Lights of Hope and policy forums, and offers opportunities for individuals to donate, fundraise, volunteer, and share their cancer stories.

Joining ACS CAN as a member allows individuals to actively contribute to the cause and make a difference in the fight against cancer
