Description

This site provides evidence-based research to help communities develop and implement cancer prevention and management programs. Cancer researchers can use the site to access information on cancer risk factors in each state and to find potential partner groups working with high-risk populations. The site also offers information on different intervention approaches for cancer. It currently features step-by-step guides for developing interventions based on physical activity and tobacco use; information on screening programs, diet and sun exposure will be added soon.
