About LLS Advocacy
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) advocates public policy positions that accelerate progress toward cures for leukemia, Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of those with blood cancer, their friends and families.
The LLS Office of Public Policy is charged with pursuing LLS's mission through advocacy aimed at governmental decision-makers. LLS's strategic plan for 2008 to 2011 identifies advocacy as one of the organization's core avenues to achieve its mission.
Below you will find links where you can meet our Legislative Advisory Committee and also find out who our allied organizations are and visit their Web sites or meet our LLS Public Policy staff.
To advance its policy goals, LLS encourages its volunteers, friends and other supporters to contact their elected representatives - in Congress and in state legislatures - to share with them the impact that blood cancers have on millions of Americans each year and to urge responsible policies that will address the serious burdens of these diseases.
