CRCHD Integrated Networks

Through NCI-supported networks, CRCHD strategically enhances the integration and dissemination of diversity training, women’s health, and sexual and gender minority efforts across NCI, the scientific community, and underserved communities experiencing disparities.  

By creating linkages across the country, CRCHD is able to more efficiently identify and leverage opportunities within NCI-supported and other programs to address unmet needs in cancer and cancer health disparities research.

CRCHD currently supports Connecting Underrepresented Populations to Clinical Trials (CUSP2CT) Program, Screen to Save: NCI Colorectal Cancer Outreach and Screening Initiative (Screen to Save), and Transformative Educational Advancement and Mentoring Network.

Connecting Underrepresented Populations to Clinical Trials

CUSP2CT will implement and evaluate multilevel and culturally tailored outreach and education interventions with the primary goal of increasing referral and ultimately, accrual of underrepresented racial/ethnic (R/E) minority populations, to NCI-supported clinical trials (CTs).

Screen to Save

The Screen to Save: NCI Colorectal Cancer Outreach and Screening Initiative aims to increase colorectal cancer screening rates among ethnically and racially diverse and rural communities nationwide.
