Cancer PlanThe New York State Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan represents a statewide effort, using the collective input of hundreds of organizations and individuals, to eliminate cancer as a major health problem for all New Yorkers. This plan addresses the continuum of cancer from prevention to end-of-life care. Created over a period of 18 months beginning in the fall of 2001, a Core Work Group coordinated this effort, using the input of those across the state through surveys and community forums. The final plan was released in September of 2003, incorporating nine major goal areas:

This Plan is being rigorously revised to address the continuum of cancer in NYS as it currently stands. In early June 2011, a very early draft of the NYS Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan 2011-2016 was made available to members of the NYS Cancer Consortium for review. Comments provided by our statewide membership were incorporated into the Plan. A second review of the Plan will be made available to members in September 2011. Following Consortium member review, the Draft Plan will be made available to the public for comment. Check back to see when this public comment period will occur.
