Health Equity Commitment
At Rein In Sarcoma, we believe that health equity is not optional — it is essential.
Our Health Equity Commitment is dedicated to making sure that every person affected by sarcoma — no matter their background, ZIP code, income, or identity — has fair access to diagnosis, care, support, and opportunity.
We aim to identify and dismantle barriers in awareness, access, treatment, survivorship, and research so that no one is left behind in our mission.
Our Health Equity Commitment & Purpose
Health equity means that everyone should have a fair and just opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive sarcoma. It requires recognizing and addressing structural, systemic, and social disparities that create inequities in cancer outcomes.
Assess and monitor sarcoma-related disparities (by race, geography, socioeconomic status, rural vs. urban, disability, etc.).
Advocate for equitable access to diagnostics, clinical trials, and specialized care.
Ensure that our programs, grants, and outreach prioritize underserved and historically marginalized communities.
Embed an equity lens into all Rein In Sarcoma initiatives—research funding, patient programs, education, and volunteer engagement.
Partner with community organizations, clinicians, and patients to co-create solutions rooted in lived experience.

By proactively addressing these issues, we aim to make our mission stronger—so that every person with sarcoma has equitable access to hope, care, and progress.
