What We Do

A smiling woman with dark hair wearing glasses and a dark blouse looks at the camera and smiles while holding a pipette above a sample array.

To advance its mission, the Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD):

  • Initiates, integrates, and promotes collaborative research studies across NCI divisions and NIH institutes and centers to address cancer health disparities
  • Coordinates and strengthens the NCI cancer research portfolio in basic, clinical, translational, and population-based research to address cancer health disparities
  • Promotes research that incorporates new and emerging technologies
  • Engages health disparity populations in the research process to ensure that research, outreach, and education efforts are culturally tailored to meet their needs
  • Creates state-of-the-art regional networks or "hubs," dedicated to cancer health disparities research, and community education/outreach through geographic program management
