Comprehensive Cancer Control in the United States

CDC’s National Comprehensive Cancer Control Program (NCCCP) participated in the development of a special issue of the journal Cancer Causes and Control entitled “Comprehensive Cancer Control in the U.S.,” published December 1, 2010.

This special issue describes progress in the comprehensive cancer control (CCC) movement in the United States since the first special issue was published in October 2005. It addresses critical aspects of CCC, such as sustaining partnerships, revising and implementing CCC plans, evaluating and measuring the impact of CCC efforts, implementing policy actions to support CCC efforts, and addressing disparities through CCC coalitions’ efforts. Each paper highlights successes of local CCC programs and coalitions.
