Colorado Cancer Coalition
Working together to eliminate
the burden of cancer in Colorado
About Us
The Colorado Cancer Coalition (CCC) is a statewide collaborative working to eliminate the burden of cancer in Colorado. We bring together survivors, caregivers, health professionals, researchers, advocates, and community organizations to strengthen prevention, improve access to care, and enhance survivorship for all Coloradans.
Through our network of Task Forces, community partnerships, and evidence-based initiatives, we connect people and programs across the cancer continuum – from prevention and early detection to treatment, survivorship, and palliative care.
Our goal is to ensure that every person in Colorado – no matter where they live – has access to high-quality cancer prevention, screening, treatment, and support services. By aligning efforts statewide, we amplify impact, close gaps in care, and create lasting systems change.
Together, we are building a Colorado where everyone has the opportunity to live beyond cancer.

Who should be screened depends on the type of cancer, age, body parts, and health history. These numbers show who has never been screened. They do not show who is late for their next test or how screening has changed over time.
