The National LGBT Cancer Network works to improve the lives of LGBT cancer survivors and those at risk by:

EDUCATING the LGBT community about our increased cancer risks and the importance of screening and early detection; TRAINING health care providers to offer more culturally-competent, safe and welcoming care; and ADVOCATING for LGBT survivors in mainstream cancer organizations, the media and research.

The National LGBT Cancer Network works to create a world where LGBTQI people do not experience disproportionate cancer disparities and every LGBTQI person with cancer is treated with dignity throughout their treatment experience.
