Australian Cervical Cancer Foundation (ACCF) is a nonprofit organisation that spreads awareness about cervical cancer in women and young girls. The organisation claims to be the only dedicated cervical cancer charity in Australia with responsibility to provide awareness, education and support to the Australian people and in developing countries.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The organisation was found in early 2007 as part of women awareness. As part of its main objectives, it facilitates programs that increase awareness about the prevention, screening and treatment of cervical cancer, as well as providing resources that support women to take care of their health.[3][7] It also works in collaboration with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities[8] to address issues of high rates of cervical cancer.[7][5]
