June is National Cancer Survivor Month Championing survivors today, shaping stronger tomorrows.

Poster for National Cancer Survivor Month by UMBC Accessibility and Disability Services. At the center, two hands are gently holding each other, symbolizing unity and support. A white cancer awareness ribbon loops around their arms. The text reads: “National Cancer Survivor Month” in bold, dark lettering. The UMBC logo appears in the top left corner.

With over 18 million cancer survivors in the U.S., it's clear that research is making a difference—but the journey doesn't end at survival. One in four survivors reports poor physical health, and one in ten faces challenges with mental health. We are proud to highlight the work of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), which is leading the way in survivorship science—improving outcomes and saving lives.
