BY THE NUMBERS
The numbers will never tell the whole
story. They can’t show the tears, hugs
and smiles of patients, friends and
families. But what they do show is still
amazing. Since 1991, cancer death
rates have declined by 23%. That’s
more than 1.7 million cancer deaths
avoided. Today, nearly 500 lives are
saved from cancer each day.

HELPING BUSINESSES
HELP EMPLOYEES
The American Cancer Society works
with businesses to help their
employees stay healthy, eat right,
avoid tobacco and get regular
checkups. It’s a win-win strategy. They
can bring health care costs under
control and improve workplace morale
and productivity in the process.

IMPORTANCE OF
CREATING A CULTURE
OF HEALTH
About half of all cancer deaths could
be prevented by making healthy
lifestyle choices like avoiding tobacco,
staying at a healthy weight, eating
right, keeping active, and getting
recommended cancer screenings. If all
employers join in the fight, together we
can help prevent cancer in all working
Americans, which is about half of the
US population.
Employers reap value on investment
in workplace wellness – saving on
health costs, as well as improving
employee health, productivity, and
retention.

IMPORTANCE OF
CREATING A CULTURE
OF HEALTH
We work with our corporate partners
to help them assess the current status
of their wellness program and develop
a tangible plan for creating a culture of
health. Improving the health of the
workforce by improving health
behaviors helps reduce the burden of
cancer and other chronic diseases.

Colon cancer facts:
What we are doing:
Colorectal cancer (commonly known as “colon cancer”)
is the second leading cause of cancer death, when men
and women are combined.
Promoting screening, working with physicians
and underserved communities
Providing information and support to patients
Screening can both prevent colon cancer and detect
cancer at an early stage, when it is most treatable.
Sponsoring cutting-edge research
Yet about 1 in 3 adults ages 50-75 are not getting tested
as recommended.*
ACS CAN** advocates for increased access to
screening and treatment
* According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

8 0 % B Y 2 0 1 8 C O L O N C A N C E R S C R E E N I N G I N I T I AT I V E
In 2014, the National Colorectal Cancer Roundtable (NCCRT)
launched the 80% by 2018 initiative.
NCCRT - founded by the Society and the CDC - is a national coalition of
public, private, and voluntary organizations.
The campaign aims to substantially reduce colorectal
cancer as a major public health problem and to reach
an 80% screening rate by the year 2018.
Achieving our 80% by 2018 goal would prevent more
than 200,000 deaths from colorectal cancer between 2013 and 2030,
including 21,000 in 2030 alone.
More than 300 organizations have pledged to work toward increasing the
number of people screened for colorectal cancer and eliminating
colorectal cancer as a major public health problem.
Cancer Prevention and Early Detection

We’ve issued the challenge: Increase Colon Cancer Screening Rates to 80%.
But the true impact can’t be measured in percentages.

H E A LT H Y L I V I N G
Reducing cancer risk starts with lifestyle. Choosing not to smoke, maintaining a healthy weight,
being active, and eating healthy all are important ways to reduce cancer risk.
THE PROBLEM IS SIGNIFICANT:
THE SOCIETY WORKS TO:
About 20% of cancer cases in the
U.S. are due to overweight/obesity,
physical inactivity, and poor
nutrition.*
More than 2/3 of adult Americans
are overweight or obese.
The obesity epidemic threatens to
jeopardize our progress against
cancer.
Help employers provide health
and wellness programs.
ACS CAN** WORKS TO:
Advocate for related legislative
policy at all levels of government.
Promote environmental
changes to improve physical
activity and provides
information to help people lead
a healthier lifestyle, including
publishing cookbooks with
healthy recipes.
Develop and publicize nutrition
and physical activity guidelines
to help people lower their
cancer risk.

It takes a lot of resources to fight
cancer - often more than any one
person has. So we make sure no
one person has to do it alone. We

organizations, and health systems
across the country to help with
patients’ most pressing needs
including transportation, lodging,
and emotional support, beginning
with our always-open cancer
