Our Mission

Through a sustained and expanding national commitment to improve the health of one community at a time, Collegiate Cancer Councils aim to:

Educate the public about cancer prevention and the additional risks associated with health disparities.
Influence health policy to reduce overall morbidity and mortality as well as health disparities.
Promote careers in cancer among all students and disciplines with an emphasis on minorities and medically underserved populations.
