Colorectal Cancer Resource & Action Network (CCRAN)

The Colorectal Cancer Resource & Action Network provides education and support to people affected by colorectal cancer across Toronto and beyond. The organization develops and distributes evidence-based information about prevention, screening, and treatment options, making medical knowledge accessible to patients, families, and healthcare providers. CCRAN runs workshops and seminars that help people understand their diagnosis, navigate treatment decisions, and access appropriate care. The network also advocates for improved screening programs and works to reduce barriers that prevent early detection of this highly treatable disease. By connecting individuals with reliable resources and peer support, CCRAN helps reduce the stigma surrounding colorectal cancer and improves outcomes for those facing this diagnosis.
