Empowering Equity: Tigerlily Foundation’s Fight Against Breast Cancer Disparities
Tigerlily Foundation is committed to advancing public policy to further our mission to educate, advocate for, empower, and support young women before, during, and after cancer. We are striving to make our vision of ending disparities of age, stage, and color in our lifetime a reality through:

Tigerlily Foundation has decades of history in the policy landscape. Our goal has always been to advocate for impact by driving policy making to create equity for patients. Patient advocacy leadership has always been key—here within Tigerlily and in guiding public policy. We water the seeds of inspiration and innovation, and working with advocates, advocacy organizations and stakeholders, have created policies and legislation that have changed the lives of millions of people. We are excited to culminate these years of momentum into our Health Equity Advocacy and Leadership (HEAL) Policy Center for Excellence (COE).
Through Tigerlily’s HEAL Policy COE, we work to educate, empower, and lift patient voices to ensure they are amplified, in order to achieve health equity and end disparities. The HEAL Policy COE will focus on systemic changes through policy at the local, state, and federal level to:
- End barriers to accessing and receiving quality, equitable care for all,
- Lead innovation through patient-leadership, and
- Achieve health equity and eliminate disparities in breast cancer.
Through the HEAL Policy COE, we seek to influence policy for these purposes through bi-directional learning, programs, and training to cultivate a center to exchange ideas, activate voices and create lasting change.

Tigerlily Foundation’s mission is to educate, advocate for, empower and support young women before, during and after cancer.
Tigerlily Foundation’s Director of Community Engagement and Partnerships, Roddia Hill, PsyD, recently attended the CURE Today Patient Education Summit over the weekend, on behalf of Tigerlily as a proud CURE partner. The event brought together patients, advocates, and leaders for a powerful day of education, storytelling, and connection centered on improving outcomes for those impacted by breast cancer. ![]()

Throughout the summit, Dr. Hill engaged with the community and was especially moved by the opportunity to connect in person with several Tigerlily ANGEL Advocates, whose strength, honesty, and dedication to supporting others continue to inspire the organization’s work. The gathering reinforced the importance of amplifying the voices of women impacted by breast cancer—particularly women of color who continue to face disproportionate outcomes. ![]()

Dr. Hill shared that she left the summit feeling deeply inspired and grateful to be part of a community committed to education, advocacy, and ensuring that no one navigates their breast health journey alone.
