WHY THEM, WHY NOW?
Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened in 1962. And we won't stop until no child dies from cancer.
“Knowing we have the care team that we have, I can just be his mom.”
We envision a future in which the human rights to migration, housing, healthcare, food, and safety are respected and protected. Knowing that a more just society for TransLatinx people is a more just society for all, we push towards the day when ALL people and communities are seen, safe and free.
“El/La gave me the opportunity to settle into my empowerment”
