The Cancer Prevention and Control Program (CPCP) works closely with individuals, organizations, and communities to encourage and make possible cancer prevention, early detection, and appropriate care for those diagnosed with cancer.  The CPCP has many current projects, in which research findings are used for planning, monitoring, and evaluating cancer prevention and detection activities throughout the state.  We are committed to finding solutions to ease the burden of cancer affecting our residents.
