Plan
Components
The Wisconsin Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan includes:
Vision
Healthier people in Wisconsin by reducing the impact of
cancer.
Mission
Create a consortium of public and private partners
empowered to develop, implement, and promote a statewide coordinated
approach to cancer control.
Goals
- Reduce the risk of developing cancer.
- Detect cancer at the earliest stage possible.
- Promote access to quality comprehensive cancer care that meets or
exceeds national guidelines and standards.
- Optimize the health-related quality of life along the continuum of
care for those affected by cancer and their support networks.
- Improve consistency, coordination and compliance of cancer data
reporting and surveillance.
Priorities
Develop priorities from scientific data to address
Wisconsin's cancer
burden.
Objectives
Incorporate objectives that address the plan’s
priorities, using existing objectives from the federal Healthy People 2010,
and Healthiest Wisconsin 2010, the State Health Plan. If needed, new
objectives can be created.
Strategies
Each workgroup will develop evidence-based strategies
that will be action steps towards meeting the plan’s objectives.
Cross-cutting issues that all Workgroups need to address
- Disparities: Ensure that priorities and strategies developed in this
plan work to eliminate health disparities. These include differences in
the incidence, mortality, and related adverse health conditions that
exist among specific population groups. In Wisconsin, these population
groups may be characterized by gender, age, ethnicity, education,
income, social class, disability, geographic location, or sexual
orientation.
- Public Policy and Advocacy: Ensure that priorities and strategies
developed in this plan include population-based and system changes
through public policy and advocacy.
- Access to Healthcare: Ensure that priorities and strategies developed
in this plan support equal access to services throughout the continuum
of cancer for all Wisconsin residents.
