Become an Advocate for Medical Research
Pediatric brain tumor patients need more — more research, more treatments, and more time. As the largest funder of brain tumor research in the world, the federal government is a key stakeholder in understanding pediatric brain tumors and conducting research that will lead to treatments. Advocate now by asking your members of Congress to increase research funding so that we can continue to crack the code on pediatric brain tumors and create change that will last a lifetime.
Join the Conversation
We encourage you to get involved, take action, and create change for pediatric brain tumor patients. We’ll be sharing stories, facts and information, and additional content to help spread awareness and unite our community throughout Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. We encourage you to post and share liberally across all of your individual/organizational social media accounts. Sharing content online for #CCAM will:
- Increase the reach and power of our advocacy;
- Help educate and engage the public; and
- Raise resources needed to create change and accelerate the development of new, more effective treatments for pediatric brain tumor patients.
