Mission

PoCoG aims to improve outcomes for people affected by cancer by:

  • Developing and facilitating high quality interventions and services that optimise psychosocial and supportive care.

  • Supporting health professionals and researchers with advice and resources that increase collaboration and innovation in psycho-oncology.

  • Bringing together health professionals, researchers and consumers to share ideas and collaborate.

  • Building capacity and collaborations to conduct large, multi-centre research of clinical relevance that would be difficult for a single team to undertake.

  • Encouraging other trials groups to include psychosocial or quality of life sub-studies in existing and planned research.

Our 2024-2025 Strategic Plan defines the purpose of PoCoG as an organisation.
