Data Release ActivitiesSince 1994, the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) has been funding state cancer registries to collect population-based cancer incidence data under Public Law 102-515, the Cancer Registries Amendment Act. One of the goals of NPCR is to release these data to public health planners and others to monitor the burden of disease and to implement cancer prevention and control programs. Starting in 2001, NPCR began receiving data annually from funded programs with the goals of establishing the quality of the data and eventually releasing the data for use in public health planning. Currently, NPCR has three products for data release. Each year, these products are updated to include the most recent year of data. Prior to any release, the data must meet quality standards and states must indicate in writing their agreement to participate in each data release product. For more information on any of these releases, please contact cancerinfo@cdc.gov and specify NPCR Data Release in the subject line.
