Watch this video to learn about the NH Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan and why you should be involved in the activities of the New Hampshire Comprehensive Cancer Collaboration.


 

Every day in New Hampshire 19 residents are diagnosed with cancer and 7 die. Hundreds of volunteers at the The New Hampshire Comprehensive Cancer Collaboration (NH CCC) are working together to help reduce this number.

NH CCC identified 33 objectives to reduce the burden of cancer statewide described in detail in the New Hampshire Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan 2010-2014. Five work groups are responsible for implementing the objectives of the Cancer Plan. Work Groups include Primary Prevention, Prevention and Early Detection, Treatment and Survivorship, Palliation, and Emerging Issues.

NH CCC brings together partners from national, state and local health organizations; community service organizations; cancer survivors; and individuals who work together to share knowledge and resources to address cancer statewide.

With a disease as complicated and far-reaching as cancer, one person, one team, or even one organization cannot hold all the answers. But together, our potential is boundless.
 

 

February is National Cancer Prevention Month

Statistically 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 are women diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. In New Hampshire alone, there are 7,000 new cases and 2,600 deaths each year, making it the leading cause of death in the state (see 2011 New Hampshire State Health Profile).

There are many ways to reduce your risk of developing cancer.
