Let’s stand together
for change

Multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, doesn’t affect all communities equally. And if you’re Black, Hispanic, from a rural or medically underserved community, your life could be impacted more.

Multiple Myeloma - your story is your strength

This powerful mural honors the stories of those living with multiple myeloma. 

Mission

Standing in the Gaap stands with you

Standing in the Gaap stands with you and everyone else affected by multiple myeloma. We are committed to overcoming barriers of race, geographic location, and circumstance. No one should face this disease alone. That’s why we provide support, resources, and advocacy across all communities.

Resources

Whether you have multiple myeloma or are caring for someone who does, these resources may be helpful if you’re just starting to learn or already on treatment.

Patients and doctors are partners in this journey. There’s so much patient-friendly material out there. Quote from Joan, living with multiple myeloma
