Pediatric Cancer

The national broadcast of A LION IN THE HOUSE seeks to galvanize public attention around childhood cancer. ITVS, the presenters of A LION IN THE HOUSE, has spearheaded a community engagement campaign that brings to this effort a committed group of national partners and a broad array of stakeholders to spur a national dialogue, support families and caregivers and inspire local and regional action. The campaign seeks to build bridges between families in need and communities of support.

ITVS Community is proud to support A LION IN THE HOUSE with a variety of community outreach events and materials.
