Thanks to the hard work of Jack’s Angels Foundation, Congressman Knight introduced House Res. 586 – the first legislation dedicated exclusively to DIPG awareness, which would establish the fourth week of May as a National DIPG Awareness Week.  But House Res. 586 needs to first pass through the Committee on Energy and Commerce before passage by the full House of Representatives. And we need to pass House Res. 586 in time to coincide with May’s Brain Tumor Awareness Month.

WE NEED YOU!  TAKE ACTION WITH THESE SIMPLE STEPS:

1. Send an email to your Representative using this SIMPLE ONLINE EMAIL FORM, courtesy of Children’s Cause for Cancer Advocacy.
2. APRIL 7 – Call Your Representative’s District office, using the PREPARED SCRIPT.
3. APRIL 20 – Call Your Representative’s Washington, D.C. office, using the PREPARED SCRIPT.  For D.C. office phone numbers:  CLICK HERE.
