Definition of Comprehensive Cancer Control
“an integrated and coordinated approach to reduce
cancer incidence, morbidity and mortality through
prevention, early detection, treatment, rehabilitation
and palliation.”
Why Do It?• Heavy and unequal cancer burden
• Inadequate infrastructure
• Limited resources
• Limited data use in decision making
• Lack of coordination
• One cycle of planning and implementation is insufficient
What Works
• Organization of organizations• Commitment to planning & implementation• Evidence-based process• Topical subcommittees develop objectives and
strategies• Priority-setting process within larger body• Mutual education about issues in cancer control• Focus on what’s feasible to do NOW by US
TIMELINE
A Framework for Comprehensive Cancer Control
• Phase 1 - Setting Optimal Objectives
• Phase 2 - Determining Possible Strategies
• Phase 3 - Planning Feasible Strategies
• Phase 4 - Implementing Effective Strategies
Phase 1: Setting Optimal Objectives

• Identify existing Needs &
Capacity Assessments (N&CA) at County level
• Identify gaps

Where Are We Now?
Press ConferenceJanuary 9, 2003
$3,250,000
Budget Allocation to Implement the Plan
Public Awareness Campaign
• Melanoma
• Educational Materials Translation
• State-wide Campaign
• State-wide Conference
Surveillance
• Increase BRFSS encounters from 4000 to 10,000– dissemination of information at the county level– essential for Capacity/Needs Assessment
• Cancer Cluster Task Force
New Jersey Commission on Cancer Research
• Expanded funding to address– Cancer and Aging– Quality of Life– Disparities
• Clinical Trial Education Initiative
• Informed Consent Workshops
Evaluation
• Procurement of evaluation services on the Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan as mandated by Executive Order 114 and as indicated by CDC guidelines allowing for biennial reports, monitoring, revising and updating.
Infrastructure
• Office of Cancer Control and Prevention– directing activities– internal monitoring– funding initiatives
• NJCEED
• Cancer Registry– capacity/needs assessment– GIS expansion– NCI SEER contract
Infrastructure
• Health Service Grants through the 25 NJCEED lead agencies – critical for the capacity/needs assessment per
CDC guidelines– local cancer coalition building– implementation of the Plan at the community
level
To be continued...
Together We Can Make A Difference
