OHA release - Cancer remains the leading cause of death in Oregon, affecting thousands of families every year. With about 22,000 new cancer diagnoses annually, the impact of this disease reaches far beyond patients—it touches caregivers, communities, and workplaces. In response, the Oregon Health & Science University’s Knight Cancer Institute and Oregon Health Authority (OHA) have published the 2025 Oregon Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan, a new guide to help reduce cancer’s toll across the state.  This guide is more than a report—it’s a community-driven effort to deliver information that can better assist people in Oregon in their fight to prevent cancer, improve early detection, support survivors, and address health disparities. Developed with input from health and cancer experts, equity consultants, and a cross-sector steering committee, it reflects Oregon’s commitment to health equity and measurable progress.
