Join the LIVESTRONG Army

"October 2, 1996. The day I was diagnosed with cancer was the day I began to live.  Cancer opened my eyes.  Cancer changed me – physically and mentally.

But October 2nd was also the day I joined a team of more than 10 million survivors trying to make sense of a system that doesn’t always know what to do with us.  During my treatment, there were things I wanted to change.  Talking to other survivors, I’ve realized I’m not alone in wanting to improve our health care system to better support the needs of survivors. 

It’s time for our nation to address our issues.  I’ve met with members of Congress and with the President and encouraged them to listen to survivors, and to figure out ways to fix the problems that survivors face in America. But they need to hear from you.  Let’s tell our stories and let them know about the issues we’ve seen that need to be fixed.  Together, we can help change things for the better.  As a team, we can make a difference for survivors." -Lance Armstrong

Join the LIVESTRONG Army and stand with Lance and all Americans living with cancer. Together we will urge Congress and the President to devote more time and attention to survivorship issues, listen to the needs of cancer patients, and increase funding for cancer research.
