title: Development of cancer prevention and control initiatives in a state health agency: the New York experience.
abstract: The public health response to cancer in the New York State Department of Health has evolved over many years. A number of organizational units contribute to surveillance and monitoring, quality assurance, policy analysis and advocacy, education, service delivery, and evaluation components. Extensive cooperation with health professionals and consumers outside of state government is also essential.
