Cancer Screening for Uninsured and Under-insured Residents
The New Jersey Cancer Education and Early Detection (NJCEED) Program provides comprehensive outreach, education and screening services for breast, cervical, colorectal and prostate cancers. Persons eligible for these services must be at or below 250% of the federal poverty level and be uninsured or under-insured.
Office of Cancer Control and Prevention
The Office of Cancer Control and Prevention (OCCP) coordinates comprehensive cancer control efforts in New Jersey. Comprehensive cancer control is a collaborative process by which a community and its partners pool resources to reduce illness and death due to cancer through prevention, early detection, treatment, rehabilitation, and palliation.
For many years the New Jersey Cancer State Plan and statewide partners have guided our success in reducing the burden of cancer for all New Jersey residents and improving the quality of life for all survivors.
The OCCP also participates in the national efforts of the CDC to establish state-based comprehensive cancer control plans and conduct prevention of cancer risk factors, enhance early detection of preventable cancers and facilitate survivorship through the activities of its Regional Chronic Disease Coalitions.
