Arkansas, Rhode Island, Texas, and Kentucky are part of Fight CRC’s Catalyst State-by-State Advocacy Program, which provides funding, technical support, and resources to state coalitions working to advance colorectal cancer policy. We lock arms with partners like the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) and others to ensure colorectal cancer is a priority in state capitals.
In each of these states, advocates sent letters and emails and shared their stories with legislators to show them why this legislation is so important. And it made a big impact!
Whether you live in these states or not, take a moment to celebrate these victories with us! And if you don’t live in one of these states, check out our Catalyst Program to learn more about what is happening in your state or become an advocate!
