About

​The Southeast Florida Cancer Control Collaborative (SFCCC) is a voluntary organization made up of representatives from health care providers, community organizations, advocacy groups and others interested in networking and education related to cancer control (see Partner Organizations). The southeast region includes Broward, Indian River, Martin, Miami-Dade, Monroe, Okeechobee, Palm Beach and St. Lucie counties.

​

The SFCCC was established in 2001 with funding from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention through a cooperative agreement with the University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. Currently, SFCCC is one of the six regional Cancer Collaboratives in Florida coordinated by the Florida Department of Health’s Comprehensive Cancer Control Program.

Mission Statement

​

The collaborative is dedicated to increasing awareness about cancer prevention and early detection, and to improve access to cancer care services. Our goal is to decrease the burden of cancer through a united effort by promoting and conducting education, advocacy and research for the people of Southeast Florida.
 

We are a professional and passionate group made up of diverse organizations that provide cancer-related services. Through collaborations and partnerships, we help each other accomplish our individual and group mission.
 

We have workgroups that plan and produce programs that address the goals of a state cancer control plan. As a member of an SFCCC work group, you can contribute to this valuable work.
