Advocacy Spotlight: Amplifying the Voices of CPAN Advocates
Thousands of CPAN advocates have worked to protect community oncology for more than a decade, and each one has a powerful personal story. Some advocates join CPAN following treatment in a community oncology setting, some join as community oncology professionals, and some join to support loved ones. No matter the reason, each advocate knows firsthand the value of locally delivered cancer care, and the power of CPAN’s collective voice.
CPAN will spotlight and celebrate the efforts and stories of advocates and chapter leaders throughout 2023. CPAN will feature what led each member to advocate for community oncology, what they value about locally delivered cancer care, and the importance of organizations like CPAN to them.
