LIVESTRONG

Livestrong Advocates Nick DiGiuseppe, Jeff Thomas, and Kristin Leung showed up for Pennsylvania. They joined Pennsylvania's Cancer Action Day in Harrisburg, meeting directly with their Representative and Senator to push for policies that support people with cancer.
On the table: HB 1123, expanding early detection for colorectal cancer. SB 447, increasing prostate cancer testing access for high-risk Pennsylvanians. HB 200 and SB 906, protecting PA workers' access to cancer care. And continued funding for two programs that save lives: the PA Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program ($2.563 million) and the State To***co Control Program ($18.4 million).

Rep. Marcell and Sen. Farry are champions on these issues. Advocates like Nick, Jeff, and Kristin make sure lawmakers keep hearing from the people cancer actually affects.
This is what the advocating for survivorship look like.

Clinical trials save lives, but for too many cancer patients, they're out of reach. Travel and lodging costs, time off work, and limited trial sites near home keep countless people from ever enrolling.

That's why Livestrong has joined 160 advocacy partners in supporting the Senate's Clinical Trial Modernization Act (S. 4440), introduced by Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA). The bill would remove barriers to participation, fund community education and outreach, and ease the financial burden on patients, building on the House companion bill (H.R. 3521) we backed in 2025.

We're all in on making clinical trials work for every patient, regardless of income or location.

💛 Show your support—share to spread the word and help us build clinical trials that work for all patients.

July is Sarcoma Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about a rare group of cancers that can develop in the bones or soft tissues of the body.

For many people affected by sarcoma, life after treatment comes with its own challenges. Rebuilding strength, improving endurance, managing fatigue, and finding confidence in movement all take time—but you don't have to navigate that journey alone.

At Livestrong, we're committed to providing evidence-based resources to help cancer survivors move, recover, and thrive.
