Grant Opportunities

The Pennsylvania Cancer Control Consortium (PAC³) believes that collaboration is the key to successfully reducing the burden of cancer. With a shared vision, organizations can successfully build a system that will establish priorities and identify, implement, and evaluate the most effective approaches to cancer control. True collaboration, though challenging, is recognized as being the key that will ensure long-lasting success.

PAC³ encourages stakeholders to seek collaboration with other stakeholders so that “together, we can make our vision a reality”.
