The American Indian Cancer Foundation is a national, Native-governed organization dedicated to building stronger Native Nations by increasing access to cancer prevention, education, early detection, treatment, and survivor support across Indigenous communities.

Mission: Eliminate the cancer burdens on Native people through improved access to prevention, early detection, treatment, and survivor support.  

Facts:
Native people face alarming inequities in cancer incidence and mortality. Cancer incidence rates vary by tribe, region and gender, but are often much higher than the white population.
• Cervical cancer - up to 69% higher
• Lung cancer - up to 83% higher
• Colon cancer - up to 162% higher
• Liver cancer - up to 198% higher
• Stomach cancer - up to 490% higher
• Gallbladder cancer - up to 691% higher
(Cancer, Sept 2008)

Our Approach: 
We believe Native communities have the wisdom to find the solutions to cancer inequities, but are often looking for the organizational capacity, expert input and resources to do so. 

We support innovative, community-based interventions that engage Native populations in the discovery of their own cancer best practices.

We strive to be a partner trusted by tribal and urban community members, leaders, health care providers, and others working toward effective and sustainable cancer solutions.

General Information:
The American Indian Cancer Foundation (AICAF) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that was established to address the tremendous cancer inequities faced by Native communities. AICAF's board members and employees have an array of experience serving the health needs of our people.
