Our Mob and Cancer website, developed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, provides information about cancer, including cancer types, prevention, diagnosis, treatment, living with cancer, finding support, clinical trials and much more.
These Cancer Council SA webpages provide information and support specifically for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
This Optimal Care Pathway for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with cancer (PDF, 126 pages) has been designed to complement the cancer-specific care pathways, focusing on the aspects of the care pathway that need to be responsive to the needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with cancer.
