Cancer in Iowa: 99 Counties Project Presentation

Why This Matters
Cass County now leads the state of Iowa in new cancer cases. We want to change that. Together, we need to better understand the data, learn more about our cancer risk, and take action to prevent cancer. This takes all of us—healthcare providers, elected officials, business and school leadership, private citizens—to talk about the problem, share education, explore solutions, encourage screenings, and promote healthier lifestyles.
About the 99 Counties Project
Launched by the Iowa Cancer Registry, Cancer in Iowa: 99 Counties Project is an initiative to make sure every county in Iowa has access to the latest cancer data and information. The goal of each presentation is to give local leaders, healthcare providers, and residents the tools they need to act—whether that means boosting cancer screening rates, supporting caregivers, or advocating for better access to care. To bring this information to every corner of Iowa, the Registry has teamed up with local health departments and statewide partners, including the University of Iowa College of Public Health, the Iowa Cancer Consortium, University of Iowa Health Care Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Iowa Rural Health Association.
