BC/YUKON REGION IN ACTION

Our vision is a future without breast cancer by the year 2020. By 2020, we are committed to reducing the incidence and life-limiting impacts of breast cancer in BC. To make this vision a reality, CBCF leads and supports numerous programs and initiatives in breast cancer prevention, early detection, treatment, research, and emerging issues in the health care workforce.

2020: THE FUTURE WITHOUT BREAST CANCER

Early in 2007, CBCF brought together British Columbia’s leaders in cancer care and women’s health at The Summit – 2020: The Future Without Breast Cancer. The purpose was to discuss what it would take to make the vision of a future without breast cancer a reality by the year 2020. It was agreed that through a cross-agency initiative, this future was indeed possible. The Summit ended in the establishment of five recommended areas of focus: prevention, early detection, treatment, research and the healthcare workforce. The 2020 Task Force was struck with five Working Groups, one for each area of focus. Each Working Group is developing and managing the execution of a plan to move their recommendations forward to the ultimate goal: 2020 – The Future Without Breast Cancer.
