Comprehensive Cancer Control Program

The State of Nevada’s Comprehensive Cancer Control Program works towards bringing together communities and partner organizations who strive to reduce the burden of cancer in Nevada by combining efforts to:

1. Reduce cancer risk

2. Find cancers earlier

3. Improve treatments

4. Increase the number of people who survive cancer

This program is funded through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Comprehensive Cancer Control Program which assists Nevada in supporting the Nevada Cancer Coalition to fight cancer in our state.

The dedicated and passionate members of the Nevada Cancer Coalition represent individuals and organizations from across our state working together to fight this devastating disease.

The major goals of the Nevada Cancer Coalition include:

1. Encouraging people to live a healthy lifestyle

2. Promoting cancer screening tests

3. Increasing access to appropriated cancer treatment and care

4. Improving the quality of life for people who survive cancer
