Our CCC team launches acs4ccc.com
Our Comprehensive Cancer Control (CCC) team recently launched acs4ccc.org, a website compiling resources from across the enterprise for use by leaders and key stakeholders in state cancer coalitions.
“We hope the new website will become a one-stop-shop for CCC coalitions to access the huge volume of resources that ACS has to offer them as they develop and implement cancer plans,” says Katie Bathje, director of Comprehensive Cancer Control. “ACS has an incredible breadth of high-quality tools and information. Our job was to curate and layout those tools in a way that resonated with comprehensive cancer control coalition partners.”
For more than 20 years, ACS has provided training and technical assistance to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s 66 grantee programs and coalitions which are a part of the National Comprehensive Cancer Control Program. These coalitions are charged with designing and implementing impactful, strategic, and sustainable plans to prevent and control cancer in their state, tribe, or territory.
The website offers several options for users to search for information, either by cancer continuum topic area (prevention, screening and early detection, treatment, and survivorship), or by categories that would be recognized and sought after by CCC partners – such as Cancer Data, Cancer Planning, Roundtables, and Policy, Systems, and Environmental (PSE) Change.
Early feedback on the website has been positive. Cancer Control Strategic Partnerships Manager in the North Region, Shannon Bacon, says she “loves acs4ccc.”
“ACS has so many useful tools that sometimes it's been hard to keep track of them all. This website brings all of them together into one easy-to-use place so that we are equipped to jump right in with coalition partner," she said.
If you have an idea or suggestion for acs4ccc.org, contact Katie on Teams IM or by email at katie.bathje@cancer.org.
