Our Marching Orders

What we learned at the #AYACancer Town Hall

--

This week, Critical Mass held the very first #AYACancer Town Hall in Washington, DC. It was an incredible event thanks to our hosts the Smith Center for Healing & the Arts and Shire as well as our panelists Caitlin Morris from Families USA, Sarah Schultz from Young Invincibles, and Andy MacCracken from the National Campus Leaders Council.

We learned a number of things from our adolescent and young adult patients and survivors:

Critical Mass plans to take these lessons to our policymakers and ensure that adolescents and young adults have access to quality, affordable health care coverage that protects and addresses their unique needs.

If you were not able to check out the town hall last night, you can view it HERE.
