Just Introduced: Give Kids a Chance Act
The Give Kids a Chance Act of 2025 (H.R. 1262) is comprehensive legislation that includes provisions from four bills that were cut in the last Congress: the Give Kids a Chance Act, the Creating Hope Reauthorization Act, the Innovation in Pediatric Drugs Act, and the RARE Act.
Please join us in asking your Members of Congress to cosponsor this critical bipartisan legislation - because kids deserve better and have waited long enough.

With this statement, Children’s Cancer Cause calls on the greater healthcare system and provider community to work toward the successful health care transition of more than 500,000 childhood cancer survivors, a growing population with unique long-term care needs. Recommendations include the development of a consensus process to determine best practices and standards of care for effective healthcare transitions for survivors of childhood and adolescent cancers.

25 Years as a Voice of Children with Cancer
Children’s Cancer Cause was founded in April of 1999 to give a voice to the unique perspectives and urgent concerns of childhood cancer patients, survivors and their families — a voice that was absent in national debates on cancer policy at that time.
