CCCA Advocacy

In 2013, CCCA will advance advocacy for children with cancer in the 113th Congress. The Children’s Cause is working with the TOVIA-trained advocates and our coalition partners to protect childhood cancer research funding in the upcoming sequester debate, to push for the reauthorization of the Conquer Childhood Cancer Act, support pediatric cancer drug development, and ensure the needs of children with cancer and cancer survivors are heard clearer than ever in Washington, DC.
