Georgia’s Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan 2021 – 2024 supports cancer prevention efforts with plans to work to decrease exposure to environmental hazards such as radon.
The Partnership and Advocacy Section includes strategies to facilitate advocacy efforts, and promotes evidence-based action, and encourages ongoing discussion with critical stakeholders to address exposure to environmental hazards, including radon and excessive ultraviolet radiation. Included in this partnership is the Georgia Radon Education Program. With grant funding from EPA, the Program educates Georgians on how to protect themselves from the risk of developing lung cancer caused by the entry of excessive radon gas into their homes.
