PASS Public Access to Safer Sunscreens

We are the Public Access To SunScreens (PASS) Coalition, a coalition of health organizations, sunscreen ingredient companies and concerned citizens who want to encourage the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to establish a framework for approval of the next generation of Over-The-Counter (OTC) sunscreens.

The National Need

Skin cancer and other sun-related conditions are serious health issues impacting millions of Americans, with one person dying from melanoma almost every hour. The facts about skin cancer are alarming, and immediate action is required to bring forward the next generation of sunscreen protection to produce better, safer sunscreens.
