Community benefit

At Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA), we are committed to serving our community.

By providing care throughout the greater Seattle area, and as a national and international center of excellence that advances the standard of cancer care globally, we know the quality of care we provide makes a lasting difference in our region. 

SCCA’s community benefit work takes our aim to provide longer, better, richer lives for our patients and extends it to our whole community. 

Our community benefit activities are informed by the SCCA 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), which provided us with a deeper understanding of the impact of cancer on our region. For our work to improve cancer-related population health outcomes in SCCA’s service area, we define our community as everyone in King, Pierce and Snohomish Counties. This three-county area is where most our patients live, where our recognition is highest and where we believe we can make some of our greatest impacts.   

The SCCA 2016-2019 Community Benefit Strategic Implementation Plan outlines our four priority areas for addressing the community’s cancer-related health needs. Follow the links below to access additional resources on SCCA’s website:

  • Community health infrastructure: Building strong systems locally to support SCCA’s community benefit work
  • Cancer prevention and screening: Promoting healthy lifestyles and regular cancer screenings, including:
    • Breast cancer screenings through the SCCA mammogram van
    • Cervical cancer prevention and early detection
    • Colon cancer prevention and early detection
    • Living Tobacco Free (access to tobacco cessation resources)
    • Lung Cancer Early Detection and Prevention Clinic
    • Lung Cancer Screening
  • Access to services: Improving access to high-quality cancer care
    • Subsidized health care and financial assistance
  • Survivorship: Improving quality of life for cancer survivors
    • Patient education events
    • SCCA Survivorship Clinic
    • Survivorship events
    • Survivor health tips
