Community Networks Program (CNP)

The Community Networks Program aims to reduce and eliminate cancer disparities through community-based research, education and training. Its goal is to significantly improve access to and use of beneficial cancer interventions in communities experiencing disparities. To achieve this goal, CNP is working closely with multiple community agencies and organizations to develop and implement effective ways to reduce cancer health disparities.

Patient Navigator Programs (PNP)

The overall goal of the Patient Navigator Programs (PNP) is to develop effective interventions to reduce cancer health disparities by facilitating timely, continuous access to quality, standard cancer care for all Americans.
