Advocacy
 

Friday, September 05, 2008

CCCF works with other cancer patient advocacy groups for improved funding of pediatric cancer research and on legislative issues which impact our members.

We are a member of:

  • The Cancer Leadership Council
  • The National Coalition for Cancer Research
  • The FDA Council
  • The International Confederation of Childhood Cancer Parent Organizations (ICCCPO)

Candlelighters provides referrals to volunteers who can help families and survivors in the areas of employment, insurance, education, the military, and government benefits. It can also help obtain second medical opinions.

Candlelighters represents a voice for pediatric cancer families and survivors to the general public, the medical community, government, schools, employers, and the media.
