The MCCC has three tiers of engagement:
- Leadership Group: Statewide oversight group comprised of six Regional Champions, Committee Chairs, Community Members, Coalition Coordinator, and DPH Comprehensive Cancer Control Program Director. Responsibilities of the Leadership Group include 1. Ensuring that racial and health equity is explicit in the work of the Coalition, 2. Overseeing the development and implementation of the MA State Cancer Plan, 3. Collaborating with the Coalition Coordinator to provide guidance on overall Coalition structure and management
- Health Equity Committees: Health Equity Committees (HECs) develop, implement, and evaluate the Massachusetts State Cancer Plan. Each state-wide committee l focuses on a particular stage of the cancer continuum (primary prevention, secondary prevention, diagnosis and treatment, survivorship, and palliative care).
- General Membership: By becoming a member and joining our mailing list, you’ll be connected to our work through quarterly newsletters which will include updates on Coalition projects, opportunities to participate in statewide and regional projects, highlights of DPH and partner initiatives, current cancer trends, cancer-related learning opportunities, and upcoming events.
