About Us

The Alabama Cancer Congress was founded in  2009 to bring together all hematology and oncology professionals dedicated to improving the lives of patients across the state.
 
Today, ACC continues to advance education, advocacy, and community among Alabama’s cancer care organizations. In an increasingly challenging healthcare landscape, we remain committed to championing exceptional patient-centered care while supporting the needs and interests of the providers who make that care possible.
