Celebration on the Hill 2006 was an American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network event celebrating cancer survivorship and empowering survivors and others to advocate for laws that will help fight the disease. Although the event has passed, you can still relive the experience or experience it for the first time by watching the full webstream, become an advocate, joining eCommunities, or viewing event photos.
What is the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN)?
The Cancer Action Network is the non-partisan sister organization of the American Cancer Society that enhances our ability to advocate for cancer issues and conduct legislative and electoral activities.
While the American Cancer Society has a great record of legislative success, the Cancer Action Network allows us to be even more effective in a very challenging political environment.
