Committee Overview

About This Committee

The Delaware Cancer Consortium continues to be a voice and force for change in our state.

The Council’s Role

The advisory council, consisting of 15 members appointed by the governor, was established in 2001 to advise the governor and legislature on the causes of cancer incidence and mortality and on potential methods to reduce both. Building on past successes, the council remains focused on reducing cancer incidence and mortality in Delaware.

The council guides and supports the work of the Delaware Cancer Consortium, serving as a leader and resource. The consortium’s efforts have helped move Delaware from one of the highest-ranked states in cancer mortality to a markedly improved position, and the work continues through prevention, screening, and education.
