Linking to the Community and Other Researchers |
Massachusetts Cancer Prevention Community Research Network (2002-2009)
CCBR, in collaboration with the Harvard Prevention Research Center (PRC) and the Boston University PRC, is funded by the Centers for Disease Control to conduct the Massachusetts Cancer Prevention Community Research Network (the Network). This network is one of eight such networks nationally. The purposes of the Network are to foster partnerships among community collaborators and public health researchers, and to facilitate and support collaborations with other networks nationally. The Network focuses particularly on addressing disparities in cancer risk by socioeconomic status and race/ethnicity by fostering partnerships with a broad range of community organizations, including those not traditionally engaged in cancer prevention and control, and provides an important resource for the DF/HCC Risk Reduction Program.
