Stated Purpose
"to end breast cancer through the power of action, education, and advocacy."
The National Breast Cancer Coalition Fund (NBCCF) works to increase funding for breast cancer research, access to health care for breast cancer patients, and advocacy for decisions that affect breast cancer. The organization's Center for Advocacy Training has developed programs to teach breast cancer activists about breast cancer science and public policy so that they may advocate for the eradication of breast cancer. In addition, NBCCF hosts the Advocate Leadership Summit which is an annual gathering of breast cancer advocates from across the country and around the world. The organization also hosts Project LEAD which is NBCCF?s program to train lay advocates in the fundamentals of breast cancer science, research design, and the critical-thinking skills. In 2019, NBCCF reports that it hosted more than 130 NBCCF leaders at the Advocate Leadership Summit and 58 advocates at the Project LEAD Institute.
