Welcome
We are delighted to welcome you to the 2026 American Cancer Society National Lung Cancer Roundtable (ACS NLCRT) Strategic Plan Roadmap Summit.
This important convening will bring together Steering Committee members and invited special guests to collaborate, reflect, and shape the future direction of the Roundtable. Together, we will build on our shared commitment to reducing the burden of lung cancer and improving outcomes for all.
Purpose of the Summit
The Strategic Roadmap Summit is designed to align leadership and key stakeholders around a unified direction for the next phase of the ACS NLCRT’s work.
During this interactive meeting, participants will:
- Align on a shared vision and mission for the Roundtable
- Reflect on lessons learned from the previous strategic cycle
- Ensure responsiveness to current and emerging developments in lung cancer
- Define clear goals, interventions, and success measures across Priority Focus Areas
This collaborative process will guide the development of our Strategic Plan and inform the Roundtable’s path forward.
