The mission of Network of Strength Advocacy is to support public policy that addresses the health care needs of breast cancer patients, as well as, policies that positively affect the cancer and health community as a whole. We participate in state and national advocacy efforts to increase funding for research that will lead to better treatments, prevention and a cure. We actively support and promote legislation and policy issues through the Cancer Leadership Council (CLC), the National Health Council (NHC), and other voluntary health organizations.
