Australian Centre For The Prevention Of Cervical Cancer

VCS Foundation Ltd's vision is "To prevent cancer and infectious diseases through excellence in the provision of public health supporting screening and vaccination." Australia is a world leader in achieving cervical cancer control in our population and it is time to extend that leadership to supporting cervical cancer prevention globally. VCS Foundation Limited (trading as VCS Foundation) has emerged from the long established and trusted Victorian Cytology Service, a laboratory service formed in 1964 to support cervical cancer screening when it was first introduced in Victoria, Australia. VCS Foundation is a not for profit organisation drawing on over 50 years of expertise in cervical cancer prevention through laboratory and educational services, and 25 years of experience operating cancer screening and vaccination registries. These combined services have resulted in some of the lowest cervical cancer incidence and mortality rates globally. VCS Foundation is a holistic entity that offers a comprehensive suite of services to support, monitor and manage population health programs, including screening and vaccination. This unique combination of services is proven to achieve better health outcomes and will ultimately save lives.
