ABOUT THE PARTNERSHIP

                The American Cancer Society, American Diabetes Association, and American Heart Association are collaborating to develop and pursue strategies for the prevention and early detection of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.  The goal of this joint venture is to stimulate substantial improvements in primary prevention and early detection through collaboration between key organizations, greater public awareness about healthy lifestyles, legislative action that results in more funding for and access to primary prevention programs and research, and reconsideration of the concept of the periodic medical checkup as an effective platform for prevention, early detection, and treatment.
