|  Dear Colleagues, I am honored to announce the release of the National Cancer Plan, a long-term, ambitious framework to end cancer as we know it. It was developed to coordinate a national response to achieving the goals of the Cancer Moonshot and deliver better cancer outcomes to all people. We are grateful to our partners for their contributions in the development of the plan, including the National Cancer Advisory Board and NCI's Council of Research Advocates and many others at NIH, HHS, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and the Office of the First Lady. The plan offers something for everyone who wants to join us in creating a society where more cancers are prevented and every person with cancer lives a full and active life. At the heart of the plan are eight goals that build on our current knowledge and describe an ideal future state—essential aspects of ending cancer as we know it. By identifying how efforts across the cancer community align with these goals, we will be better able to identify gaps and work across society to address them. The plan will evolve over time, as science progresses and needs change. Everyone has a role! - Read the plan online
