The American Cancer Society, Eastern Division, is currently seeking ‘Access Stories’
In 1990, the ACS national Board of Directors set forth goals to reduce cancer incidence by 25% and cancer mortality by 50% by the year 2015. We now recognize that we will not meet those goals unless everyone with the potential for a cancer diagnosis has access to preventative services and appropriate screening. In addition, every person with a cancer diagnosis must have access to appropriate treatments.
Personal stories have the potential to demonstrate the gravity of a the current healthcare crisis. ACS is seeking the stories of individuals, diagnosed with cancer, who lack access to health car or who face financial devastation because of their status as uninsured of underinsured. This includes individuals who have insurance, but have found it insufficient to meet their medical needs
All stories collected in this project will be used in future efforts as we advocate for access to quality healthcare.
as a volunteer with the American Cancer Society, you can help to identify individuals whose stories may be compelling examples of the weaknesses in our current health system.
If you know of an individual with story, please contact:

The Camden County Cancer Coalition is the county’s leadership group and network for helping to implement the first ever, 2002 New Jersey Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan (http://www.state.nj.us/health/ccp/ccc_plan.htm). The coalition has grown naturally out of the work of the Cancer Education and Early Detection (CEED – http://www.state.nj.us/health) Advisory Committee which began in 1997. The coalition has built on that committed membership from over 30 regular participants, and desires to recruit members from all of the leading circles of influence for cancer care and cancer prevention.
