Not everyone has the same cancer risk. In Massachusetts, there are significant disparities in risk based on a person's race, ethnicity, and social class, and these disparities are growing each day. Researchers are working to improve health and reduce these disparities, but they need help.

The Massachusetts Cancer Prevention Community Research Network aims to create intervention partnerships between research institutions and a range of community organizations, including those that haven't traditionally been involved in cancer prevention and control. These partnerships will help both investigators and community leaders reach important health and cancer risk reduction goals.
