Our Vision: Conquering Cancer Together

  Our Vision: Conquering Cancer Together


Cancer does not discriminate.

It impacts individuals across Nebraska, affecting men, women, and children in rural, urban, suburban, and frontier communities alike. As the leading cause of death in the state, cancer devastates lives, families, and entire communities. It exacerbates existing disparities in access to screenings and treatment, creating even greater challenges for those most in need.

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. We are committed to providing an environment for conversations and work to be done from a variety of perspectives, voices and partners with the goal being to achieve our mission and vision.
