The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Comprehensive Cancer Control Program (NCCCP) of the Division of Cancer Prevention and Control (DCPC) has been providing support to Comprehensive Cancer Control (CCC) efforts since the mid-1990s. Since 1998, the number of NCCCP-funded programs has grown from 6 to 61 states, territories, and tribal organizations, as of May 2005. Central to NCCCP’s efforts to support CCC is to provide guidance and encouragement to states, territories, and tribes to establish broad-based coalitions, assess the burden of cancer, determine priorities for cancer prevention and control, and develop and implement CCC plans. CCC plans are viewed as “the stepping stones for advancing CCC programs—to put the program into action.”
Recognizing that each state, territory, and tribal organization has a unique cancer burden and has a unique context in which it operates, NCCCP provides general guidance on what should be included in a plan but does not specify a standard format or level of content detail for a CCC plan. The Building Blocks Model describes the steps in the plan development process, emphasizes the importance of documenting activities and strategies in a plan, and suggests that the plan include a problem statement, goals, objectives, and strategies. It also suggests that the plan “perhaps include timelines, cost, and responsible parties” while acknowledging that priorities will be handled in various ways.
As the number of states, territories, and tribes that have developed CCC plans has increased, NCCCP has received an increasing number of questions from within DCPC and from its partners about the content of CCC plans. To help answer these questions, DCPC together with ORC Macro conducted a content review of 31 CCC plans in 2005.
