Our mission is to advance prevention, detection, treatment and rehabilitation of oral, head and neck cancers through public awareness, research, advocacy and survivorship.
Through united and collaborative efforts, HNCA provides support to head and neck cancer patients throughout the year, supports ongoing research in head and neck oncology and educates children and adults in the disease process, treatment and prevention of oral, head and neck cancers.
As the premiere non-profit, HNCA Board Members have undertaken a new strategic plan to maximize our internal and external resources to become a “one stop center” dedicated to oral, head and neck cancers. Our structure allows us to have direct access to patients, caregivers, researchers, funders and clinicians all over the world.
Other medical and healthcare or government related organizations that work with us to promote the prevention, early detection, treatment and rehabilitation of oral, head and neck cancers include AACR, AAMP, AANP, AAO-HNS, AAOM, ADHA, AHNS, ASCO, ASHA, DRS, IACR, IAL, IAOMS, IFHNOS, RTOG, SOHN, SPAO-HNS and WHO.
