or defends a cause. In the cancer community, an advocate supports a cause or policy regarding cancer. Cancer advocates can work on a local, national, or global level, providing support to those living with cancer, raising public awareness of the disease, advancing cancer research, improving the quality of cancer care, or addressing legislative and regulatory issues that affect cancer care and research.</p> <p>ASCO's mission has always centered around improving the treatment and care of people living with cancer. This mission includes serving not only the educational needs of the professional oncology community, but the educational needs of the patient advocacy community as well.</p> <p>ASCO offers the following programs and opportunities for advocates who would like to get involved in our society and participate in our meetings:</p> <p><a href="https://society.asco.org/get-involved/membership/member-benefits"><strong>ASCO Membership</strong></a> is available to patient advocates, under the Affiliated Health Professionals category.</p> <p><strong>Volunteer Opportunities </strong>are available for patient advocates who are ASCO members.
