DAVENPORT, IOWA (September 2, 2026) — Cancer Support Community at Gilda’s Club is hosting an open house for elected officials and candidates from across Iowa and our eight-county service area in Northwest Illinois, including the Governor and candidates for Governor; Iowa and Illinois Federal and State Senators, Representatives, and candidates.
We invite any Cancer Support Community participants to attend. Public leaders have been invited to tour our space to learn more about the no-cost support we provide to anyone impacted by cancer. This is your chance to:
- Meet your Public Leaders (legislator, elected official, candidate) face-to-face in a relaxed, welcoming setting;
- Share your story and help them understand the real impact of cancer on individuals, families, and communities; and
- Hear what Public Leaders are doing to support health, wellness, and cancer care in our state.
This program is offered in-person. Registration is REQUIRED.
