This $1,971,041 Cooperative Agreement award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.393 - Cancer Cause and Prevention Research) aims to advance cancer control equity by strengthening community health centers' capacity to deliver evidence-based cancer screening and tobacco treatment while promoting social and digital connection among patients and their communities.
The key products and services being delivered under this 5-year award include: 1) developing and implementing multi-level interventions at the community and systems levels to build social capital, civic engagement, digital access, and cancer control care; 2) creating a community-partnered approach for conducting responsive research and building capacity to address social determinants of health; and 3) establishing a centralized data ecosystem to support efficient data collection, management, and sharing across the research projects. Through sub-awards, the project leverages expertise from Rutgers University, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Caring Health Center to contribute to the core research, evaluation, and implementation activities.
