The
mission of the Georgia Cancer Coalition is to reduce the number
of cancer deaths in the state. In so doing, Georgia intends
to become a national leader in cancer control by accelerating
prevention, early detection, treatment and research.
All of the Coalition’s activities,
programs, and budget have been organized around five goals:
Prevent cancer and detect existing cancers earlier
Provide quality care for all Georgians with cancer
Establish ongoing, collaborative processes for addressing cancer data and metric issues in Georgia
Georgia will become a destination site for cancer patients, biotechnology, and biomedical companies in the southeastern United States
Generate a combination of state, federal, and private funds to support the fight against cancer
