Relative to Cancer Prevention Week.
AI Summary
This Concurrent Resolution declares the week of April 7 to 13, 2013, as "Cancer Prevention Week" in California, aiming to raise awareness about cancer and encourage participation in the American Cancer Society's Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3). The CPS-3 is a large-scale research effort recruiting 300,000 adults across the United States to help scientists better understand the genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that contribute to cancer development or prevention. The resolution highlights the significant impact of cancer, noting that in 2013, over 1.3 million people in the U.S. were living with a history of cancer, with many new diagnoses and deaths expected, and while California has seen a decline in cancer incidence rates, nearly half of Californians born today are still projected to develop cancer in their lifetime. By encouraging participation in CPS-3, the resolution seeks to advance scientific understanding of why some individuals develop cancer while others with similar experiences do not, acknowledging that cancer is complex with many contributing factors.
