Established in 2019, the OCHE mission is to foster sustained bilateral engagement between communities in central Pennsylvania and Penn State University with ultimate goal of advancing cancer health equity and reducing cancer burden for everyone. OCHE efforts and staff serve as a foundation for world-class cancer research, care, outreach, and education. We are active participants in cancer-related policy development.
Our vision is that no one in central Pennsylvania develops a preventable cancer or dies prematurely from cancer.
