LUNG FORCE

About LUNG FORCE

The American Lung Association's LUNG FORCE initiative unites those impacted by lung cancer and their caregivers across the country to stand together against lung cancer.

Working together to defeat lung cancer

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S., and every day, lung cancer takes the lives of more than 361 of our friends, neighbors and loved ones. But now there's hope—the five-year lung cancer survival rate has increased 44% in the past 10 years. 

We need more awareness about lung cancer, more education on lifesaving screening and more research funding to fuel lifesaving breakthroughs.

We stand together against lung cancer. We stand together as LUNG FORCE.

Bringing hope to those touched by lung cancer

Through education, advocacy and research, we work to provide hope to all those impacted by the disease and to save more lives. Watch the videos below to see how LUNG FORCE is making a difference.
