The American Cancer Society is a charitable organization. Our purpose is to educate the public about key issues that relate to our lifesaving mission of eliminating cancer as a major public health problem. The American Cancer Society Cancer Action NetworkSM (ACS CAN), can take political action on these same issues. ACS CAN lobbies for legislation that is relevant to the access issue, and it holds lawmakers accountable for their votes through comprehensive voter education campaigns.
