We aim to positively impact the quality of life of those with neuroendocrine cancer by offering support and expanded access to information on diagnosis, treatment options, research and resources. LACNETS provides a venue/makes it possible for patients to share experiences, encouragement and hope. We work to improve outcomes for patients through early diagnosis by raising awareness among healthcare professionals and with the public about neuroendocrine and carcinoid cancers.
