Community
Outreach
The
Community Outreach Program works with high-risk and medically
underserved populations to provide both education and improved
access to services. The
Ireland Cancer Center offers programs on campus, at inner-city
clinics, and in other community locations. These programs
-
Address
specific issues that may prevent the underserved
from seeking care
-
Promote
cancer prevention and detection
-
Encourage
behaviors that foster healthier lifestyles
The
Ireland Cancer Center also sponsors several public education
programs each year to address issues of interest to the
community. Previous
programs have explored breast, colorectal, prostate, and
gynecologic cancers, as well as genetics and cancer.
