This bill tackles a number of issues that affect cancer survivors. It will strengthen the survivorship care system by improving care coordination, ensuring smoother transitions to adult healthcare, expanding access to navigation and support services, addressing employment and economic challenges, and increasing awareness of the lifelong health needs of childhood cancer survivors.
This legislation furthers cancer survivorship efforts by encouraging innovation and technology, supporting long-term studies of survivorship outcomes nationwide, expanding access to fertility preservation services, and addressing the distinct challenges faced by children and adolescents diagnosed with cancer.
This bill could help children with cancer not only survive, but also thrive throughout adulthood.
You can help support childhood cancer survivors by asking your U.S. Representative to cosponsor the Lainie Jones Comprehensive Cancer Survivorship Act.
