Through The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s nationwide grassroots network of more than 100,000 volunteers, they advocate for policies at the state and federal level in a commitment to remove barriers to care for cancer patients. Their efforts have helped increase federal research funds, speed the review and approval process of new therapies and ensure patients are able to access lifesaving treatments. Many of the policies that LLS advocates for, at the state and federal levels, are universally beneficial for all cancer patients.
