Abstract

The association of parents of children and adolescents with cancer (APNACC), is a nongovernmental organization law institution, with legal status, nonprofit and social aid, whose mission, vision and objectives is to ensure the rights of the children and adolescents so that they are not violated, in addition to guiding and directing parents who enter this world of childhood and adolescent cancer, because we believe that addressing in time saves lives and optimizes resources. Through this article, it is intended to describe the impact that APNACC has had on this cause, the fight against childhood and adolescent cancer; from achieving a state law for free care for catastrophic and orphan or rare diseases, to obtaining approval of a basic list of medications.

Keywords: APNACC; cancer; fight; warriors.
