Welcome to the Nebraska Cancer Coalition 

Cancer does not discriminate.  It touches and impacts people across Nebraska.  Cancer is the second leading cause of death in Nebraska.  It touches men, women, and children in rural, urban, and suburban neighborhoods.  It wreaks havoc in the lives it touches, in families and in communities. Cancer deepens already existing disparities in access to cancer screenings and treatment.  It is a disease that needs a neutral voice to coordinate efforts across our state to reduce its impact and to improve lives touched by cancer.  Nebraska Cancer Coalition is that voice.
