Cancer Matters

Ep. 24 This is Government Advocacy Behind the Scenes

I’m excited to welcome Brian Hummell, the Arizona and New Mexico Director of Government Relations for the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network. Brian has spent many years involved in cancer coalitions and policy changes that make cancer care fairer and more accessible, from helping pass Medicaid expansion in Arizona to securing biomarker testing coverage and supporting local tobacco regulation efforts.

Today we’ll go behind the scenes with Brian to learn how advocacy really works: how campaigns are planned, how patient stories are used, and what it takes to turn a policy idea into real help for patients and families. Whether you care about health policy, want to get involved, or just want to understand how change happens, this conversation will give you a clear look at the people and strategies working for better cancer care in our states.
