Cancer Council Australia operates as the leading national non-government cancer control organization in Australia, based in Sydney, New South Wales. It coordinates national efforts to reduce the impact of cancer by advancing prevention, early detection, treatment, and supportive care for people with cancer and their caregivers. The organization advises the Australian Government and other bodies on practices and policies related to cancer, and it advocates for patients' rights to receive optimal treatment and supportive care, with independence allowing it to direct resources where they are most needed and influence public policy across all cancer types and stages. It collaborates with eight state and territory Cancer Councils to prevent and control cancer and to provide support for those affected. A recent development noted is Cancer Council SA’s development of a National Cancer Navigation Service to broaden access to tailored information and assistance.
