Founding Story

Advocates for Collaborative Education (ACE) was born from a tweet during #ASCO20. After decades of breaking down silos between patient communities and clinical care and research, we realized we needed to ensure we were silo busting across cancer types. Our group membership continues to grow.

Our Mission:
To unite & empower advocates through pan-cancer collaborations, basic and advanced advocacy education, and the sharing of leading practices

Our Goal:
To elevate patient, community, research, and policy advocacy in order to improve outcomes of people living with a cancer diagnosis

We gather together virtually to assess what is already out there in each of our communities, what is working for some groups and what might be leveraged across others before identifying and addressing consistent gaps.
