Office of Community Outreach and Engagement
The overall mission and long-term goal of the CFCCC’s Community Outreach and Engagement (COE) component is to reduce cancer-related burdens in the Catchment Area through cancer monitoring, community outreach and education, strategic partnerships and coalitions, advocacy, and facilitation of research that promotes cancer health equity for all. This mission involves translating and disseminating the Center’s research into practice and policy, as well as communicating concerns and attitudes of the community to Center members to inform new research initiatives. COE also builds on well-known best practices to improve cancer prevention, early detection, and access to quality cancer care.
