National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship

The National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS), founded in 1986, is a patient-centered organization advocating for quality cancer care for all individuals affected by cancer. The organization represents the interests of cancer survivors to Congress, the federal government, policymakers, payers, providers, and other stakeholders involved in cancer care. NCCS focuses on promoting cancer care planning at diagnosis and during treatment and survivorship transitions. Additionally, they advocate for policies aimed at improving the delivery, regulation, and financing of cancer care in the United States. NCCS also provides tools and information to empower survivors to be fully engaged in their care. More information about NCCS can be found at www.canceradvocacy.org or by contacting 1-888-650-9127.
