Description

Purpose. The Community Networks Program (CNP) is designed to address the cancer burden in racial/ethnic minorities and other underserved populations by using Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR). This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) solicits applications for CNP Centers that will utilize the CBPR approach to reduce specific cancer disparities through a combination of outreach, research and training. The goal of the CNP Centers is to increase knowledge of, access to and utilization of beneficial biomedical and behavioral procedures related to cancer in areas ranging from prevention to early detection, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship. In this CNP issuance, a particular emphasis is on high quality intervention research involving controlled and rigorous studies. Applicant teams must be based on established partnerships between academic institution(s) and targeted community entities/community-serving healthcare organizations. The partnering community components are expected to contribute substantially to the design of the Center programs proposed in the applications. The proposed Centers may involve a Headquarters site and additional locations in different geographic areas. A Center with Headquarters and at least 4 additional sites in defined geographic areas is referred to as a National Center. Other centers, referred to as Regional Centers, must be composed of a Headquarters and 2-3 additional sites in defined geographical areas. This FOA is open to all qualified applicants regardless of whether or not they participated in the previous CNP issuance.
