Key Issues

There are several advocacy issues that the Melanoma Research Foundation is taking action on. These include, but are not limited to:  tanning bed regulations, federal funding of melanoma research, CDC funding, NCI funding and NIH funding.

Advocates are encouraged to check the website regularly for updates on all of these key issues, as well as on the state and national issues. The moving of the MRF office from New Jersey into Washington, DC in 2010 was so that we could have our hands in these decision making processes and advocacy efforts.
