About the Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD)

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) established the Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD) in 2001 to help reduce the unequal burden of cancer in our society by:

  • Strengthening NCI’s cancer research portfolio in basic, clinical, translational, and population-based research to address cancer health disparities through collaborations with NCI Divisions, Offices, and Centers.
  • Building regional networks to foster collaboration, enhance capacity in disparities research and career development, and disseminate culturally appropriate, evidence-based cancer information to underserved communities.
  • Providing technical expertise, information, and advice to NCI leadership on strategic priorities, program direction, and scientific policy to strengthen cancer health disparities research.
