ACS CAN South Dakota Suits and Sneakers Day at the Capitol

Register for our Suits and Sneakers Day at the Capitol 

Join volunteers from across our state in advocating for full funding of the Medicaid expansion program and celebrate the submission of the State Plan Assessment on the March 1st deadline. 

By meeting with your lawmakers, you will help protect the lives of thousands of families across our state. Never participated in a meeting with your lawmaker? Don’t worry! We will provide you with training and everything you will need to be successful. All you need is passion to make an impact in the fight against cancer and advocating for access to care for all South Dakotans.
