Advocacy
Make a Difference for New Yorkers affected by breast cancer!
Attend Advocacy Day March 20
Take advantage of Advocacy Day in Albany this year to meet with legislators
and tell them your cancer story. Ithaca Breast Cancer Alliance would like to
know who will be coming this year. If you are planning on participating, please
call or email us to register. Deadline is March 9.
There is a $30.00 registration fee for this event to cover transportation, materials
and a light breakfast. Registering will also allow IBCA to make the correct
number of packets for attendees.
IBCA is once again offering the option of carpooling or renting a van to drive
to Albany.
IBCA advocates are taking a leadership role with Finger Lakes region women’s
cancer issues.
We have spoken with our legislators and made our voices heard so that funding
for support initiatives continue for breast, cervical, ovarian and other women’s
cancers. We invite you to join with other area advocates as we meet the challenges
ahead.
