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.

As we come to the close of Minority Health Month, we’re reminded that advancing health equity is not limited to a moment—it’s ongoing work that requires commitment every day.Gaps in care don’t exist by chance. They are shaped by access, awareness, trust, and systemic barriers — and closing those gaps requires intentional action, collaboration, and community.At Tigerlily Foundation, we’re committed to advancing education, advocacy, and access so that every woman has the opportunity to receive the care she deserves.But real progress happens when we work together.How are you actively closing gaps in care—and what’s making a difference?#MinorityHealthMonth #HealthEquity #AccessToCare #advocacy #community ...

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Miami this Saturday for the Bliss Collective: Brunch & Sip. 💗From the moment we came together, the room was filled with warmth, openness, and a powerful sense of community. It was a space where women showed up fully—ready to listen, share, and pour into one another.Through meaningful conversations on clinical trials, survivorship, mental health, wellness, and more, we witnessed the power of connection and the impact of creating spaces where women feel seen, heard, and supported.Take a look at some of our favorite moments and feel the energy that made Miami so special. ✨ Photography by K13 Images This is what choosing Bliss looks like—and we’re just getting started.A special thank you to our valued partner, Bristol Myers Squibb, for helping bring this experience to life.#tlfblissbrunch ...
