We help patients learn about their disease, to be better equipped to speak with their healthcare team. Patients learn about patient engagement and are better equipped to advocate on their own.

Educate

Organize seminars to share information from medical conferences (e.g. American Society of Hematology, American Society of Clinical Oncology)

Inform

Disseminate the latest information through the website and newsletters and periodic targeted emails. Sharing experiences and knowledge.

Your voice matters, and we are here to amplify it. By actively engaging with CML patients, we aim to create a powerful collective influence that leaves a lasting impact.

Together, we will strive for a healthcare landscape that genuinely meets the unique needs of every CML patient.
