The Children's Cancer Cause Advocacy Toolkit was created with a broad audience in mind. It provides basic foundational information for individuals interested in advocating in the fight against childhood cancer. The purpose of the toolkit is to educate, engage, and empower any citizen to make their voice heard with elected officials and decision makers. Its focus is on federal legislative advocacy, but it also touches on personal, community, and media advocacy at the local level.
“Our Advocacy Toolkit provides a roadmap for people who are passionate about speaking up and working together to create a better future for children with cancer and the more than 500,000 survivors of childhood cancer in the United States.”
If you previously downloaded our advocacy toolkit, you’ll want this revised 2.0 version with updates and new content for 2022, including the rise of virtual lobbying as an outcome of the pandemic. Even if you're a seasoned advocate, we hope you'll learn something new by perusing this toolkit -- and we hope you'll consider passing this along to a friend who is new to childhood cancer advocacy.
