A Message from American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network Chief Executive Officer Shane Jacobson
We are living in a time of unprecedented discovery in cancer prevention, early detection, and treatments. Advancements in cancer care have driven the death rate from the disease down 34 percent since 1991. More Americans are surviving cancer than ever before, with 18 million cancer survivors living in the US today.
The American Cancer Society (ACS) and the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) are committed to building on these successes and improving the lives of people with cancer and their families. By working to apply what we know and investing in areas where we don’t, we are maximizing our collective impact on our mission. We’re focusing on prevention and early detection, cancer research and discovery, and cancer health disparities, delivering measurable impact with every dollar, every life, every year.
Despite progress, the cancer burden remains high. That’s why we’re starting with what we know works: focusing on prevention and early detection as the most powerful tool in our toolbox. Screening and early detection have averted millions of deaths, and 40 percent of cancer cases are linked to modifiable risk factors such as smoking, poor diet, and inactivity. In 2024 ACS provided direct support and education for people with cancer, caregivers, and clinicians in more than 22,000 communities in the US and across 60 countries.
As the largest private, nonprofit funder of cancer research outside of the federal government, ACS also knows that breakthroughs in research drive innovation – but they must be matched by accessibility and affordability. ACS is proud to fund more than $524 million in active grants, but health care is a team sport. No organization, provider, or system has all the answers or reach.
We also know that cancer affects everyone, but not equally. Cancer health disparities persist across racial, geographic, and socioeconomic lines. Cancer detection and treatment disparities continue to widen among Americans in minority and underserved communities. These inequities demand immediate action. ACS and ACS CAN work to ensure everyone has access to the care and resources they need to help prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
Thank you for supporting our lifesaving work. We know innovation without equity is not progress – and you make this progress possible. With your help, we are making the cancer patient voice heard from city halls to the halls of Congress.
Together, we are ending cancer as we know it, for everyone.
Shane Jacobson
Chief Executive Officer
American Cancer Society and American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network
To our Amazing ACS CAN Volunteers, Team Members & Supporters,
2025 was a year that yet again displayed the criticality of elevating our voices in the fight against cancer. The policy environment has been difficult for our mission with the July passage of the Budget Reconciliation Bill, impacting access to affordable access to health insurance coverage both in Medicaid and Marketplaces nationwide. Initial estimates project as many as 10 million fewer people will have health insurance by 2034; additionally, without action to extend enhanced health care tax credits, 4.2 million more could be priced out of coverage. These are not just numbers. Evidence has proven over and over the importance of health insurance to prevent, detect, treat and survive cancer. Loss of coverage impacts cancer outcomes for patients, their families, and so many futures, and underscores why our advocacy is essential. Your relentless efforts ensured the importance of access to care to our cancer mission was top of mind for every member of Congress throughout the debate. Although the outcome was not what we had hoped, our impact was undeniable.
Against this backdrop, there were also many examples of ACS CAN delivering extraordinary progress. The Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Act (MCED) became the most cosponsored bill in the 119th Congress. This milestone reflects the power of thousands of calls, letters, and meetings from volunteers like you. We continue to champion affordability through the Health Care Affordability Act and advocate for a multitude of policy interventions that help make access to care more affordable.
Our ongoing fight for research funding never wavers. We called on Congress to invest in lifesaving innovation, pushing for $51.3 billion for NIH, including $7.934 billion for NCI, $1.5 billion for ARPA-H, and $472.4 million for CDC cancer programs. These investments fuel breakthroughs that change lives, and we will never stop demanding progress.
At the state level, the impact on our mission is undeniable. We continued leading the charge to pass biomarker testing legislation across the country, and in 2025 we now have 22 states ensuring access to precision medicine for countless patients. We eliminated out-of-pocket costs for breast cancer diagnostic screenings in seven states, ensuring early detection is not a financial burden. We fought for stronger tobacco control laws, defeated Big Tobacco-backed rollbacks in more than 15 states, and celebrated significant victories in Indiana and Maine with increased tobacco taxes to fund more tobacco control programs and to keep tobacco products out of the hands of children. We also made strides towards health care affordability. States from Virginia to Washington passed laws to protect patients from medical debt and stop harmful copay accumulator practices.
The past year also reminded us of why representation matters. We're building a unified framework to align our engagement, messaging and metrics for health equity. In a year marked by divisiveness and attacks on civil and human rights, ACS CAN’s Volunteer Leadership Affinity Groups led the way, playing a significant role in fostering community and belonging by providing safe spaces for people with shared identities and experiences to connect and support one another. They have helped ACS CAN create a more inclusive environment and experience for existing and new volunteers.
As we look ahead, we do so with resolve. The challenges are real, but so is our momentum. ACS CAN is advancing our mission and expanding our impact through renewed and deeper investment in our critical work. Central to this progress is our community of visionary donors and supporters, whose commitment powers ACS CAN’s leadership in shaping public policy that strengthens cancer prevention, fuels research, and expands equitable access to care. Together, we are charting a bold path forward. Thank you to everyone who continues to propel our mission and help secure its lasting success.
Thank you to all ACS CAN volunteers, State Lead Ambassadors, Vice State Lead Ambassadors, Ambassador Constituent Team Leads, Legislative Ambassadors, affinity group leaders and members, the ACS CAN and ACS Boards of Directors, and team members for your unwavering dedication to this work. I am excited for our continued partnership and advocacy in the coming year.
ACS CAN is energized by a shared commitment to move our mission forward and expand our impact through meaningful investment in the work that matters most. At the center of everything we do is our incredible community of volunteers, generous donors, and passionate supporters, whose dedication inspires our ongoing efforts to shape public policies that strengthen cancer prevention, fuel research, and ensure access to quality care for all. Together, we are building a hopeful and bold future, and we are deeply thankful to each of you for the role you play in powering our mission and making lasting progress possible.
Lisa A. Lacasse, MBA
President, ACS CAN
ACS CAN gratefully acknowledges the exemplary service and leadership of Dr. Kimberly L. Jeffries Leonard, whose vision and dedication have strengthened our mission and impact.
In 2024, Dr. Jeffries Leonard made history as the first Black and indigenous woman to chair the ACS CAN Board of Directors. Drawing on more than four decades of experience in applied health and behavioral medicine across federal, private, and local sectors in Washington, D.C., her unwavering dedication continues to guide ACS CAN as it advances cancer prevention, access to care, and equity-driven public health policy.
During her tenure, Dr. Jeffries Leonard presided over pivotal Board meetings, represented ACS CAN at numerous events including the Congressional Black Caucus Annual Legislative Conference, delivered opening remarks at the National Forum on the Future of Health Care Policy, and served on the ACS and ACS CAN CEO Search Committee. She boosted our efforts by emceeing and moderating In Due Season events, and inspired thousands of cancer advocates in Washington, DC at our annual Leadership Summit & Lobby Day.
As 2025 marked Dr. Kimberly Jeffries Leonard’s final full year serving as Board Chair, ACS CAN recognizes the enduring impact of her leadership, which has strengthened organizational governance, elevated our commitment to health equity, and fortified the relationship between ACS and ACS CAN. We are grateful for her steady direction and for positioning us for greater success in advancing our advocacy mission.
The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) is committed to advancing evidence-based public policies that reduce the cancer burden for everyone. In 2025, we continued to support volunteers nationwide to ensure their voices influenced policymakers at every level of government. Our mission is rooted in the belief that every person deserves a fair and just opportunity to prevent, detect, treat and survive cancer. Since 2001, as the American Cancer Society’s nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate, ACS CAN has driven progress by securing billions of dollars in cancer research funding, expanding access to affordable, high-quality health care and championing proven tobacco control measures. Today, we stand alongside our volunteers to make cancer a top priority for policymakers in cities, states, territories and our nation’s capital.
We engage thousands of dedicated individuals in every congressional district across the country to share their time, skills and their stories to advance ACS CAN’s mission to advocate for evidence-based public policies to reduce the cancer burden for everyone. Our volunteers are experts in taking action. They engage with their elected officials through phone calls, emails, social media, letters and in-person meetings, and speak out in their communities, halls of government and the media in support of public polices to help end cancer as we know it, for everyone.
We work with attorneys who donate time and incredible legal expertise to help advance our mission by representing ACS CAN in influential court cases, regulatory proceedings, and legislative drafting to further mission goals. In 2023, we celebrated the 15th anniversary of ACS CAN's Judicial Advocacy Initiative (JAI). From its inception in August 2008 until December 2023, the program has resulted in $5.6 million in contributed services from law firms, with over $600,000 contributed in 2023 alone. Learn more about our Judicial Advocacy Initiative.
We leverage the expertise and insight of our Board of Directors, which is comprised of physicians, researchers, public health professionals, civic leaders and experts.
We lead coalitions and partner with organizations to advance public health policies that benefit people impacted by cancer and other chronic diseases through joint lobby days, congressional briefings, sponsorship and expert participation in conferences and panels. The following are highlights of critical coalitions and partnerships:
ACS CAN founded and leads the One Voice Against Cancer Coalition (OVAC), a collaboration of over 50 national non-profit organizations advocating for sustained cancer research and prevention program funding. It is the leading cancer coalition in the nation’s capital, representing millions of cancer researchers, physicians, nurses, patients, survivors, and their families.
ACS CAN founded and leads the Patient Quality of Life Coalition (PQLC), which advocates for palliative care legislation and works to amplify the patient voice.
ACS CAN is a founding member of the Partnership to Protect Coverage Coalition (PPC), which works to ensure health coverage is affordable, accessible, adequate, and understandable. ACS CAN works with PPC on major legislative and regulatory issues, including Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, and coverage issues.
As a founding and lead partner of the Alliance for Cancer Care Equity (ACCE), ACS CAN works with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and the National Minority Quality Forum (NMQF) to convene organizations committed to advancing public policy that fosters more equitable cancer outcomes with an intentional focus on racial and ethnic disparities.
ACS CAN co-chaired the State Access to Innovative Medicines (SAIM) Coalition, which works to advance state legislation that regulates step therapy and reduces out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs.
ACS CAN is an active member of the All Copays Count Coalition, which works to advance state legislation to restrict the use of copay accumulator adjustment programs and ensure patients receive the full value of prescription drug copay assistance.
ACS CAN is also an active member and leader in state Medicaid expansion coalitions, such as Cover Alabama, Cover Georgia, and Care4Carolina.
ACS CAN engages thousands of passionate advocates throughout every state and congressional district and in courthouses nationwide. These dedicated individuals invest their time, talents and personal stories to advance our mission to advocate for evidence-based public policies that reduce the cancer burden for all.
Our volunteers are catalysts for change. They engage elected officials through calls, emails, social media, letters, face-to-face meetings and amicus curiae or “friend of the court” briefs. They raise their voices in communities, government offices, courts and the media, championing policies that move us closer to ending cancer as we know it, for everyone.
ACS CAN volunteers are more than the heart of our organization – they are the driving force behind our impact. Their relentless advocacy keeps cancer at the forefront of our public policy advocacy agenda.
Our voices undeniably led to impact throughout the year. In 2025, ACS CAN advocates:
Volunteer in Action Spotlight
Matthew Chen, an ACS CAN volunteer from Kansas, published a compelling op-ed in The Kansas City Star detailing his experience lobbying Senator Jerry Moran (R-KS) and emphasizing the importance of continued NIH funding for cancer research. He also amplified this message through interviews with NewsNation and KCTV5. Inspired by the impact of cancer on his own family, Matthew has become a passionate advocate for advancing lifesaving research.
Our Why......
“With ACS CAN, I’ve felt like I’m heard because it’s not just me advocating for cancer patients, survivors and caregivers. There’s strength in numbers when we all advocate for the same thing.”
— Kitti Walkup-Birkhead, Ambassador Constituent Team (ACT) Lead, Colorado
“For the first time in a long while, I feel a sense of agency. It brings me great joy to know that I can help others with my stories, and I am grateful to ACS CAN for allowing my voice to be heard.”
— Jung A Han, ACT Lead of the Year 2025, Massachusetts
“Volunteering with ACS CAN gives me a way to turn my grief into impact by working on legislation, awareness campaigns and funding initiatives that can change outcomes for children.”
— Sahil Mehta, Legislative Ambassador, California
Championing Change Together
ACS CAN advocates, including patients, survivors and family members representing all 50 states, Washington, D.C., Guam, Puerto Rico and nearly every congressional district, participated in our 19th annual Leadership Summit and Lobby Day (LS&LD), with approximately 700 in attendance who gathered in Washington, D.C., to advocate on behalf of everyone impacted by cancer.
Advocates participated in meetings with all 100 Senate offices and 384 House offices, including 122 member-level meetings and 173 senior staff-level meetings, to ask lawmakers to:
During LS&LD, volunteers attended the House Ways and Means Committee meeting, where members of Congress acknowledged the sea of ACS CAN blue shirts in the room. Volunteers were thanked publicly for showing up, and their presence was credited with helping drive momentum for the unanimous passage of the MCED bill – with a vote 43 to 0.
Additionally, ACS CAN hosted an impactful rally on Capitol Hill to highlight the importance of federal investments in cancer research and prevention. This rally featured remarks from an ACS CAN volunteer, Teresa Simpson of Massachusetts, as well as remarks from a bipartisan, bicameral group of members of Congress who emphasized the importance of federal investment.
ACS CAN honored loved ones and all those touched by cancer during our 15th annual National Lights of Hope event. With nearly 10,000 decorated bags in Washington, D.C., displaying nearly 85,000 bags nationwide, and 53 7-foot-high story columns highlighting one story from each state and territory, hundreds of advocates and supporters participated in the event at Constitution Gardens on the National Mall. In addition to the display in Washington, D.C., Lights of Hope were displayed in communities across the country. Volunteers raised more than $925,000 in 2025, including more than 280 local sponsorships nationwide.
Our voices were amplified through media coverage of Lights of Hope and LS&LD featuring volunteers sharing their personal stories and highlights of their time in the nation’s capital – one of which was an NPR story reported by Noam Levey in partnership with KFF Health News that showcased our New York volunteers’ deeply personal reasons for advocating, and the real impact of these conversations on Capitol Hill. Listen to the full NPR story.
Additionally, volunteers participated in 36 interviews on LS&LD alone through a radio and TV media tour, including multicultural media outlets serving Hispanic/Latino and Black communities. In the days and weeks following the event, we secured more than 480 media hits. Volunteers also took to our social media platforms to amplify the event with over 1.1K posts and more than 44.4K engagements, that reached 1.9 million accounts with an absolute reach of over 6 million.
In 2025, ACS CAN’s advertising supporting both our Protect Cancer Cures campaign and our efforts to Protect Medicaid generated more than 17.7 million impressions nationwide, elevating patient and survivor stories while driving attention to the need to protect cancer research funding and access to care.
ACS CAN demonstrated power and presence to fight for cancer patients and their families at risk of losing affordable, quality health insurance. The devastating rollbacks to Medicaid and Marketplace coverage in early July, marked by Congress passing the 2025 Budget Reconciliation Bill, brought continued challenges and powerful reminders of why ACS CAN’s work is critically important.
ACS CAN is deeply grateful to the dedicated team members and volunteers who continued to mobilize at every stage of our nationwide campaign. Our voices were heard – loud and clear. One of the most powerful moments in this fight came when Senator Dick Durbin brought ACS CAN’s position to the Senate floor. In his remarks (pictured below), he underscored the real-life consequences of the bill, quoting our statement directly:
“Voting for this bill means voting to rip that chance of survival away from real people,” he read. “Simply put, this bill will mean more Americans are living sicker and dying sooner.”
This moment was a clear testament to the strength of our advocacy. It demonstrated that when ACS CAN advocates raise their voices – through phone calls, emails, letters, office visits and the sharing of personal stories – Congress listens. Our impact has been undeniable.
ACS CAN’s commitment to advancing our mission priorities was unwavering through the high-visibility efforts of our team members and volunteers. Across the country, our grassroots network was loudly amplified through our Protect Medicaid Campaign initiative. Advocates nationwide attended town halls, collected petitions at community events, launched billboards and amplified advocacy through social media. In addition to the incredible earned media placements in both national and local outlets, there have been a variety of high-impact activities and visibility across the nation.
Our Impact Mobilized:
ACS CAN led the charge nationwide to remove barriers to ensure everyone has access to lifesaving, evidence-based care. By uplifting the voices of those touched by cancer, we continuously illuminated the path toward change and called on policymakers at every level to take bold action.
Through dedicated advocacy efforts, ACS CAN played a pivotal role in advancing policies that strengthen research funding and broaden access to innovative therapies. Ensuring that groundbreaking breakthroughs reach the individuals who need them most requires consistent, long-term growth in federal and state research funding, along with focused action to reduce inequities in personalized medicine and overcome obstacles to clinical trial participation.
Expanding access to prevention and early detection services is critical in reducing the burden of cancer, improving health outcomes, and saving lives. ACS CAN achieved major progress in advancing tobacco control and expanding access to prevention and early detection services in 2025. We celebrated numerous victories from our advocacy efforts across local, state, and federal levels.
ACS CAN championed policies to help ensure every person regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability status or geographic location has a fair opportunity to benefit from lifesaving cancer care advances. Prioritizing equitable access to health care and elevating the voices of communities that are most affected strengthened our collective efforts in bringing us closer to a future of affordable care and advancing policies that eliminate existing barriers.
In terms of tobacco control and prevention, ACS CAN’s health equity focus is to empower communities historically targeted by the tobacco industry and engage them in evidence-based local tobacco policy change. In 2025, we engaged and expanded our work within the Hispanic Latino, African American and Asian American Pacific Islander communities. Our efforts are funded through California tobacco tax revenue that we helped generate through a successful ballot initiative in 2016, and we have used this funding to expand our presence, influence and health equity in communities we otherwise would not have the resources to reach.
Through ACS CAN’s Protecting Cancer Cures campaign, we proudly elevated patient voices through our advocacy, making a tangible impact in influencing lawmakers to take the lead in protecting the nation’s critical cancer research infrastructure. We launched a powerful new website – Voices of Cancer Research – to highlight the personal stories of those impacted by cancer research and the consequences of funding cuts. One Voice Against Cancer Coalition (OVAC), a collaboration of over 50 national nonprofit organizations founded by ACS CAN that advocates for sustained cancer research and prevention program funding, also amplified advocacy activities throughout the year.
In December, advocates for the ACS CAN HOPE from Coast-to-Coast initiative visited four cities in Tennessee, California, Arizona and Florida to share our message that communities across the country are building HOPE for cancer cures. Supporters in Nashville, Miami, Phoenix and San Jose created an art installation by using sticky notes in 7-foot tall letters to spell out the word HOPE as a colorful testament to what can be done when Congress funds the fight against cancer.
ACS CAN’s collective and continued work ensured cancer patient voices were elevated in our efforts to protect and advance vital, mission-critical policies. We:
