Wisconsin's Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan 2005-2010
The Plan was created by over 200 partners statewide to serve as a common framework for action in cancer prevention and control over the next several years. It will provide program leaders, policy makers and researchers with a carefully crafted vision of what needs to be done and the resources needed to reduce the burden of cancer on the people of Wisconsin.

Thank you to our many contributors who made the development and implementation of this Plan possible.

Together...we'll reduce the burden of cancer in Wisconsin.
