Today, AOSW honors the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He reminded us that “of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health is the most shocking and inhumane.”

In oncology social work, we carry this legacy forward by advocating for equitable access to care, dignity in treatment, and compassionate support for every patient and family.

Today, we recommit ourselves to advancing equity and justice in healthcare.
