FLASCO History

The History of FLASCO

In 1977, FLASCO was formed as a statewide 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to facilitating and promoting multidisciplinary efforts to improve patient care in Florida. FLASCO continues to make strides in promoting excellence in care of patients afflicted with cancer and hematologic disorders and leads efforts to respond to policies and legislation that threaten to compromise patient access to quality cancer care. FLASCO is gaining momentum as more professionals use us as the catalyst to develop partnerships, share knowledge, and stand together to demonstrate strength and determination to move forward in the battle against cancer.

FLASCO will continue to be recognized as a nationally respected state professional society as we stand together as the Voice of Oncology in Florida.
