The New England Coalition for Cancer Survivorship

The New England Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NECCS) exists to Educate, Advocate and Empower those whose lives have been affected by cancer in the New England region.

NECCS is a 501 C 3 non-profit organization which incorporated in 1997. It is comprised of patients/survivors, family members, friends, caregivers, and cancer-related organizations who work together to address the common issues that affect quality of life for New England cancer survivors. Those affiliated with the Coalition are committed to the cancer survivorship movement because they understand the challenges of the disease and its treatments. In many cases, Survivors are helping Survivors.

The Coalition believes cancer survivorship begins at the life-altering moment of diagnosis and continues as the patient, their family, friends and caregivers live with, through, and beyond cancer.

NECCS' ability to achieve its mission is completely dependent on the generosity of individuals, organizations, grants, and NECCS programs/events. Your contribution will enable NECCS to educate, advocate for and empower patients/survivors and family members who are living with, through and beyond cancer. Donations may also be made in honor of a cancer survivor or caregiver you love — or in memory of someone you miss.

The Conquer Cancer Coalition is a Massachusetts-based organization dedicated to providing an ongoing source of funding for local, nonprofit cancer organizations including NECCS. The primary source of revenue is the continued sales of the special Conquer Cancer license plate, available through the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles.
