title: States take diverse pathways toward cancer control.
abstract: With funding from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), most states are moving forward with comprehensive plans to reduce the incidence of cancer and the morbidity and mortality associated with the disease. However, health experts in each state are taking on this issue as they see fit. It is clear that some states have taken a more aggressive stance than others, producing an impressive array of ideas on how to leverage the resources of public and private-sector organizations to tackle the disease on a statewide level.
