This team has compiled a new resource to report to the community those cancers that are most prevalent, documenting noteworthy changes in cancer incidence, deaths from cancer and variations in these trends among people of different races or ethnicities.

Recognizing our efforts globally on delivering high-quality cancer care to our patients, Newsweek has once again named Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center to its list of World’s Best Specialized Hospitals for Oncology 2023.

Today, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center officially opened The 11 Day Power Play Cancer Resource Center. The newly renovated space is located on the first floor of the main hospital and is a place where patients and their families can find information, support, comfort and connection at Roswell Park. Services in the new space include patient education, wellness activities, self-care and materials for entertainment and comfort. This resource is possible thanks to donations to Roswell Park from The 11 Day Power Play organization.
