American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network Legislative Ambassadors work with staff and volunteer leaders in their state to establish personal, ongoing relationships with elected officials to advance policy change in the fight against cancer.
Play an important role in helping to make fighting cancer a top priority with federal, state, and local elected officials. Help increase funding for cancer research, prevention, and screening programs, pass laws to reduce the burden of tobacco, or build programs to address health disparities and improve the quality of life for those affected by cancer. Work in teams at the local level to build relationships with your elected officials and share your story. Our highly organized volunteer program gives you access to trainings, tools and resources to amplify your voice and your impact.
