Please save the date for AACI's joint annual Hill Day, hosted with the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR). The 2026 AACI/AACR Hill Day will take place in Washington, DC, on Thursday, May 14.

Now more than ever, participation in Hill Day is crucial to sharing our message with our legislators in Washington: that stable, predictable funds for the National Institutes of Health and National Cancer Institute are critical for advancing cancer research and care at our nation’s cancer centers.

We encourage each cancer center to send at least one representative to Washington to advocate on your center’s behalf. Cancer center leaders, scientists, administrators, public relations officers, government relations staffers, and patient advocates all provide unique perspectives on the value of cancer research funding. 

Registration will open in early 2026. For more information, please email AACI Senior Government Relations Manager Jaren Love.
