The mission of the Comprehensive Cancer Collaboration is to reduce significantly the incidence of, suffering from, and mortality due to cancer for people in New Hampshire through prevention, early detection, treatment, rehabilitation, and palliation. We will accomplish this goal by means of an integrated and coordinated alliance of stakeholders that will utilize available epidemiological data and evidence based research to set priorities for action.
