In 2008
153,760 Americans will be diagnosed with colorectal cancer.
52,180 Americans will die from colorectal cancer.

CCA is committed to changing the current reality and increasing the hope for those coping with the pain of colon cancer in their lives. A primary component of our efforts is providing support to colorectal cancer patients, their friends and family. We advocate for increased funding for colorectal cancer research and screening programs and work to increase public awareness of the disease and the importance of early detection. CCA continually explores ways to extend our capabilities, enhance our services and broaden our educational and advocacy activities.

To accomplish these goals, CCA relies on the support of our many volunteers and donors nationwide.
