The Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network (BCAN) is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization focused on providing information and community support for individuals affected by bladder cancer, with a broader aim of advancing research and influencing policy to improve outcomes. Based in Bethesda, Maryland, BCAN serves patients, families, and caregivers by offering education and resources while pursuing initiatives that promote understanding of bladder cancer biology and spur translational and clinical research. Established in 2005, the organization positions itself within the nonprofit health sector as a patient advocacy and support network that also collaborates with pharmaceutical and research communities. BCAN has organized and participated in events such as the Walks to End Bladder Cancer and the Spring Bladder Cancer Summit for Patients and Families, reflecting its role in mobilizing patient communities and facilitating partnerships with sponsors and allies. Recent activity highlights partnerships with major pharmaceutical companies for national presenting sponsorship of its advocacy events, and ongoing efforts to develop support mechanisms such as helplines and funding for patient-centered research.
